Analyze Design Brief Requirements • A consultation with the client to assess their biggest concerns and needs; a thurough assessment and analysis of the entire grounds of the zoo’s site to establish placements of signs, animals, lavatories, shops, cafes, etc; • Research on conditions on which signs can be made and integrated on site, from the concept of what and how the designs will be, function, and look, to the manufactoring (which companies that will take the team’s concept to physicality) • Costs, of the team’s artistic time, and subcontracting (to the manufacturing) • Health and Safety, for visitors, staff, and animals • A final consultation with client of all entailed for the job for final approval, and confir- mation on contracts before production can commence. • The look and feel of the actual physical postings of signs, the designs, standard, and non-material that’s conducive to the zoo’s grounds, which includes the health and safety standards of what ‘goes’, and doesn’t.

Laughing Kookaburra
Dacelo Novaeguineae
Country of Origin Eastern Australia
Description The Laughing Kookaburra is a stocky bird of about 45 cm (18 in) in
length, with a large head, a prominent brown eye, and a very large
bill. The sexes are very similar, although the female averages larger
and has less blue to the rump than the male. They have a white or
cream-colored body and head with a dark brown stripe through each
eye and more faintly over the top of the head. The wings and back are
brown with sky blue spots on the shoulders. The tail is rusty reddish-
orange with dark brown bars and white tips on the feathers. The
heavy bill is black on top and bone colored on the bottom.
Feeding Kookaburras are carnivorous. They will eat lizards, snakes, insects,
mice, other small birds, and raw meat. The most social birds will
accept handouts from humans and will take raw or cooked meat
(even if at high temperature) from on or near open-air barbecues left
unattended. It is generally not advised to feed the birds too regularly
as meat alone does not include calcium and other nutrients essential
to the bird. Remainders of mince on the bird's beak can fester and
cause problems for the bird.
Habitat Kookaburras occupy woodland territories (including forests) in loose
family groups, and their laughter serves the same purpose as a great
many other bird calls—to demarcate territorial borders. Most species
of Kookaburra tend to live in family units, with offspring helping the
parents hunt and care for the next generation of offspring.
