Keeper Management & Breeding Synergy

  • Staff Routing: Assign dedicated keeper huts within 40 meters of the habitat gate to prevent feeding delays.
  • Mixed-Species Compatibility: Check predator-prey barriers before co-housing; pair with compatible herbivores to receive inter-species enrichment bonuses.
  • Conservation Credit Value: Releasing healthy offspring with high genetic diversity awards conservation credits (CC) to expand your zoo trade network.
