If you intend to commence a breeding program in zoo world then the very first thing to do is to establish an animal hospital and hire a veterinarian. You should purchase the animal hospital just as soon as you possibly can as breeding animals is essential for successful game progression. As you proceed through the game further down the line more and more challenges will be achieved via the breeding of animals in zoo world, both in terms of number of animals and by degree of difficulty. It is there fore of paramount importance that you establish your breeding program as soon as possible.

In considering your breeding program you should always aim to breed a variety of species from the beginning. You will find that the larger animals tend to produce only small numbers of offspring so this may make some of the quantity breeding challenges seem difficult, however, reptiles are a great animal for increasing numbers quickly so always make sure one of your breeding spots are occupied by reptiles. The best reptiles for this is the gila monster, or the komodo dragon. The radiated tortoise is another good choice for increasing your animal numbers quickly. All of these animals lay up to 7 eggs which hatch quickly and are not too difficult. However, if you want to increase your zoo’s acclaim mass breeding will not be as beneficial as breeding difficult and rare animals. For example if you breed one panda you will earn 1000 acclaim points but 7 komodo dragons will earn you only 7 acclaim points.

Each time you finish a challenge be sure to check the status of your zoo. Often new animals will be available when a level is completed but so also are new zoo properties such as booths restaurants and decorations. When you receive access to a new animal make sure you build an exhibit and add as many animals as possible. Then breed it as soon as new breeding slot opens. Adding new species and breeding them as quickly as possible will help increase your acclaim quickly.
