    About

    Zoo Architect lets players build their own zoo and adds 17 animal species, with wildlife inhabiting jungle and desert environments. Its mammals include jaguars, capybaras, golden lion tamarins, manatees and fennec foxes; birds include flamingos, vultures and steppe eagles; reptiles include chameleons, frilled lizards, black mambas, rattlesnakes, horned vipers and king cobras; and invertebrates include shrimp, leeches and scorpions. The animals have distinctive behaviors: jaguars stalk while invisible except for their eyes, capybaras can be ridden with a melon on a stick, and golden lion tamarins can be tamed to throw rocks and attack mobs and players. Predator and prey interactions connect the wildlife: flamingos are hunted by jaguars and prey on shrimp, while fennec foxes hunt small animals such as frilled lizards and avoid husks, and steppe eagles hunt smaller animals including tamarins and fennec foxes. Fennec foxes are nocturnal, and the four snake species each inflict a different effect, including poison, toxin or venom. The mod also includes visual and naming details, such as flamingo offspring that start grey and turn pink after eating enough shrimp, and golden lion tamarins that wear diapers when named “Baby.”

    Written from Modrinth and CurseForge . How we write it

    In-game changes

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.18.2 to 1.19.2.

    Does not change the game's code directly.

    Adds 14 blocks, 77 items, 29 mobs, 1 other entity, 3 structures, 36 recipes, 11 advancements, 22 loot tables and 13 sounds.

    Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.

    Replaces 6 of vanilla Minecraft's loot tables.

    Security

    No harmful code found

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.18.2 to 1.19.2.

    We checked its files and read their code, without running it.

    Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.

    How we checked · All 3 latest files checked, last on 16 Oct 2026
    • FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.
      3 latest files: the newest file for each Minecraft version and loader. None is for a recent Minecraft version, so the answer above is about all of them. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks. See each file in Releases
    • Their codeWe turn the code of the files back into readable code and follow what it does, without running it. This shows what it downloads, what it sends and where your login goes.

    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.
      Nothing declared about your system outside the game.

    Privacy

    We found nothing it sends

    It has no file for a recent Minecraft version. This is about its files for Minecraft 1.18.2 to 1.19.2.

    We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.

    Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.

    How we checked · All 3 files read
    • Files readWe read the code without running it. We list each web address the code contacts while you play, and what it sends. Code that is never used is left out.
      The code of all 3 files, for Minecraft 1.18.2 to 1.19.2. See each file in Releases
    • Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares crash reports, usage data and advertisements. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a project collects data on its users or shows advertisements.
      Nothing declared about crash reports, usage data or advertisements.

    AI

    No sign that AI was used to make it

    We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and sounds and found none.

    No sign of AI in the game

    We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.

    Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
