At 4:10, when talking about animal acquisition, this video differs significantly from the printed English rules. Firstly, the video heavily implies left-to-right selection of the two animals ("you may take the second of the animals depicted" pointing to the right-hand one) which is not required by the rules, one or both can be taken in any order. Secondly, the rules offer an alternative choice of taking "any 1 animal of your choice", making any one of the 5 in the supply, (according to posts on BGG) not limited to one of the two pictured. Why is this not mentioned at all?
Woah, that's a massive difference. The video explicitly says you can only choose from the two depicted animals. I wonder if this was a post-launch rules change?
"I'll leave that to discover on your own" Nice reference
Some things cannot be improved on :)
Did we just get Rodney Smithed?!
just got the game. thank you for this clear concise tutorial.
The top left square is empty when he says the board is completed
You caught me!
This guy used to have an awesome channel called Bottom Shelf Board Games. I wondered why that channel fizzled out... Great tutorial!

The rules never clarify whether or not you are allowed to put animals into an enclosure that has been "scored". Does anyone know what the rule is?
Yes, it's still an enclosure just like all the others. The scoring just gives you access to the attractions.
What is that giant green field on the left for?
Just for show. There are different sized zoos depending on the player count. The green space fills the space.
Thank you
Great teach.
