Developer Mode 
If you have one of the BETA versions, hit Ctrl-D to access the Developer Mode. It 
will allow you to move zoo entrances and fences, add odd buildings, and even add 
vehicles. Remember, this only works in the BETA builds of Zoo Tycoon. I tried it 
with the full version, and it didn't work. 

Make Trees or Grid Disappear/Appear 
By pressing CRTL + F, you can make all trees in your zoo ''disappear'' (they still 
exist, they are just invisible for building purposes). Select CRTL + F again to make 
them reappear 

By pressing CRTL + G, you can make the main zoo grid appear of dissappear, 
allowed you to judge the zoo from a regular smooth vantage point, or see each 
individual square. 

Yellow brick road 
Make an exhibit with a lion, a tiger and a bear. This will unlock the yellow brick 
path.

Mermaid:
Wait until you get the mermaid statue. When you get it, place it in a water tank. 
You will have to wait a moment for it to appear.

All Dinos:
To unlock all dinosaurs name a guest Dinoman.

Cheat List 2 
Name exhibits the following: 

All dinosaur poo will turn into rocks: Copralite Corner 
Deinosuchuse will be in Animal Adoption window: Super Croc 
Corral Triceratops will be in Animal Adoption window: Cretaceous 

No rubble or trampled terrain:
Block off part of the exhibit then put terrain that can be trampled there. In their 
part of the exhibit, put Dirt, Sand, Brown or Gray Stone, or Snow. You can also 
use water as a fence if the animal cannot swim.

Bubbles:
If you put a Treasure Chest or Giant Clam in a tank it will shoot out bubbles (like 
in a fish tank).

Dinosaurs:
Name the tank Super Croc instead of a normal exhibit. Eventually a few dinosaurs 
will appear in a normal tank for no apparent reason.
