Before Adopting an Animal

Before adding a new animal to a habitat in the zoo, you will need the following:

  • A habitat.
  • A Trade Centre facility.
  • A power source.
  • A vet or caretaker.
  • Some cash or conservation credits.

Once the Trade Centre is powered (and connected by path to the habitat's gate), you're ready to start adopting animals!

How to Adopt an Animal

To adopt an animal:

  1. Open the appropriate trading screen to view the current list of animals.
  2. Select the animal you are looking for.
  3. Once you have sufficient funds, select 'Adopt'.
  4. Once you adopt an animal, it is stored in your Trade Centre and is ready to be welcomed into your zoo.

Newly adopted animals can be added to the zoo directly from the animal market and there are four types of places you can send an animal:

  • Quarantine
  • Habitat
  • Exhibit
  • Trade Centre

It's a good idea to send the animal to a quarantine facility before sending it to a habitat, as it reduces the risk of bringing infections into the zoo.

In the case of exhibit animals, only one species can be housed in a single exhibit.

Once an animal has been scheduled for transport, the nearest caretaker or vet will try to fulfil the request and take the animal to its new home.
