Koohii Story 1 Features like stones and groves of trees are the cornerstones of a happy zoo.
Koohii Story 2 A zoo which is still under construction is already full of animals. At the moment, only the cornerstone has been set in place. To temporarily keep the animals from escaping, a closely-packed grove of small trees is planted around the stone. (Note that this zoo needs some serious mending.).
