Increasing Your Conservation Credits

[Salamol]

I made a video to help answer some questions I've seen come up a lot. It largely revolves around generating Conservation Credits, but also talks generally about gestation, interbirth periods and what to look for when you're using the trade centre. Hope it helps someone!

Some good thoughts in the video.

I still think those who have huge amounts of credits were a le to amass those when the market was right.

Now it's a completely different story with even the easier to breed animals struggling.

Didn't really think about whether someone would search in great detail when buying, so will have to think about repricing some of mine (although the game suggests 1300 odd for one of my lions - he's very popular, but I'd be lucky to get half that value).

I was intending on just a 10 minute thing total... but actually there's a lot that goes into successfully breeding, buying and selling so that you can generate CCs. So it's in 2 parts of around 15 mins each.

What animal to raise, their social grouping, the alpha status, how to buy a decent animal and avoiding common pitfalls (like poor fertility and age) and how to check these for yourself in the zoopedia. How to sort through the animals and rid yourself of the poor specimens, how to make conservation credits from these poor specimens and eventually start selling the good specimens, how to price them and sell them quickly. The Frontier Zoo provided animals and how to handle these, understanding appeal and the stats, the important research and how to ensure you have the best welfare and possible chance of breeding good offspring. It all feeds into improving your conservation credit balance.
