Well, we do see animals, but they aren't always out there. It isn't like the planning video where you walk out and THERE THEY ARE! Sometimes they're there, sometimes they aren't.
One thing that disappoints me is that the animals don't hang out or walk much. They come, eat, and leave. I had more of a vision of animals just around, you know? Nothing wrong with the way it works, just different than I'd expected.
Not once has a giraffe come right up close to my balcony. I'm not saying it doesn't happen for some people, just that it doesn't happen for everyone.
