How to Complete Conservation Projects in Planet Zoo 2

Planet Zoo 2 has plenty of systems to get to grips with, and one of the areas of focus you’ll likely be drawn into is completing Conservation Projects.

Conservation Projects in Planet Zoo 2 are present across all the main game modes, though they come into particular prominence in Career Mode, requiring completion in order to tick off Objectives and advance to the next level.

Here’s everything you need to know.

What Are Conservation Projects in Planet Zoo 2?

Conservation Projects in Planet Zoo 2 serve as mini in-game objectives that can provide a boost to your zoo and are sometimes required in Career Mode to complete specified tasks.

Not every animal in Planet Zoo 2 can be released into a Wildlife Reserve, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be utilized in a more interactive way than just releasing them into the virtual ‘wild’ or selling them on to another player.

Each Conservation Project in Planet Zoo 2 has specific requirements, like a species of animals or an upfront cost, and yields rewards in the form of Conservation Credits, Cash, and more.

Some Conservation Projects in Franchise Mode are available for a limited-time only, so don’t miss out on the rewards.
