Hello and welcome to my Planet Zoo "RANDOM ZOO" Challenge!
I am not able to play PZ myself at the moment due to personal reasons, so I decided to create this little challenge for everyone else. You can play by the rules or use this as a little inspiration for your next zoo, especially if you want to try something new. If you play through this challenge, you'll end up with a zoo with at least 13 different species. All you need is a random number generator and my list of animals.
This challenge can be played either in franchise or challenge mode. You can use the sandbox mode if you use the challenge preset.

I am not able to play PZ myself at the moment due to personal reasons, so I decided to create this little challenge for everyone else.

This challenge can be played either in franchise or challenge mode. You can use the sandbox mode if you use the challenge preset.
GENERAL RULES:- Choice of map is free, but you can randomize this as well! Try a sculpted map for extra randomness.
- Difficulty must be set on medium or hard.
- The list contains all animals, all DLC's included. If you don't own the rolled animal, roll again!
- If you have to pick an animal you've already placed, roll again!
- At the end you must have an animal welfare and guest happiness above 95 points.
- You must be debt-free at the end.
- Every placed species must have at least one offspring.
- Animals shall only die from old age, never other reasons!
- All placed species must be fully researched.
- You have to place the animals in the order of the steps below. You may randomize all animals at once to plan ahead, but try to go step by step for extra difficulty.
- You can combine fitting species into one habitat, if all other rules are followed.
- You can place as many exhibit animals as you want.
