ANIMAL WINDOW
Click on an animal to bring up the Animal control panel associat-

animal, release it, or pick it up.
Click on the Animal Stats button to see important information
about the animal, including the animal’s current health level, its
satisfaction with its habitat, hunger and thirst levels, its current
social satisfaction levels, and the animal’s level of cleanliness.
Keep hunger and thirst low and all the other levels as high as
possible to keep park guest enjoyment high and to prevent the Animal Protection League
from confiscating the animal.
To affect these levels, add enough animal houses to allow all the animals in the enclo-

troughs and clean up after the animals.
Click on the Thoughts button to see what the park guests think about this particular animal.
Click the Animal Info button to display a panel with details that will help you decide what
scenery, terrain types, enclosure size and vegetation to add to the animal’s enclosure. In
this panel you’ll also find information indicating gestation period and average size of lit-

or its offspring).
Animals have an Adoption Fee button, which allows you to raise funds from park guests

ANIMAL HOUSES
In order to keep your animals happy, you need to build

bit of privacy away from the adoring park guests. To
add an animal house, click the Animal House button

ferent types of animal houses. Hover your mouse over
each icon in the Animal House construction panel to
see a list of all the animals for which each animal
house may be used. Click on the appropriate type

VIEWING GALLERIES
Viewing galleries are structures where you can charge
your park guests to get a close-up view of the animal
exhibits in your parks. To create a viewing gallery,
select the Viewing Gallery button in the Enclosure
construction panel, and then select the desired size of
the viewing gallery you want to add. A ghost image of
the viewing gallery will appear. Move the pointer over
the fence of the enclosure and click the mouse button
to place it there.
