Planet Zoo

Planet Zoo provides a selection of view modes to help with the management of the zoo. They can be accessed by selecting the Analysis View Mode.

For convenience some are also triggered when performing in game actions such as placing power facilities.  

Animal Welfare View

This mode colour codes every animal in the zoo based on its overall welfare value as shown on the Animal Info Panel. Red indicates low welfare while green indicates high welfare.

Not all of the guests in a zoo are well behaved!

Vandals

Some guests turn to vandalism when they are unhappy or unsatisfied with the zoo. Vandalism can affect the following items:

• Bathrooms
• Bins
• Benches
• ATMs
• Power systems
• Water treatment facilities
• Signs
• Speakers

Damaged items can be replaced or repaired by a mechanic. Beyond stopping the item from working, vandalised items will make nearby guests unhappy.

Vet Research

Vets can conduct research into any species currently inhabiting the zoo. To undertake this research, the vet requires a functioning research centre and access to the habitat containing the species to be researched. Vets are assigned to research in the Vet Research page by selecting a vet, then selecting a research topic.

Vets must be available for research and only one vet can be assigned to a given topic at any given time.
