New York Zoo

You must move the elephant forward clockwise the number of spaces shown on your board (you may not leave it where it is); in 2/4‑player games you move 1–4 and in 3/5‑player games 1–3. When counting, only blue Animal Acquisition spaces and any slot that has at least one Enclosure Tile count — empty slots and the breeding lines are skipped. (See page 5.)

Yes — you must take the topmost Enclosure Tile from that slot and immediately place it on your construction area following the puzzle rules, and then fill that new Enclosure with 1–2 of your animals (from houses and/or other Enclosures). If you cannot add an animal (or have no space), you are not allowed to take that Enclosure Tile and must instead move to a blue Animal Acquisition space. (See pages 5–6.)

No — you may not freely rearrange animals except where the rules explicitly allow it; when you place a new Enclosure you may move animals to fill it but at least one animal must remain behind in any Enclosure you take from, and a maximum of 2 animals may be added to an Enclosure per action. (See page 6.)

If your elephant crosses a breeding line, you complete your main action first and then Animal Breeding occurs for all players: any player who has at least 2 animals of that species in an Enclosure receives 1 additional animal in that same Enclosure (maximum one per Enclosure, up to two Enclosures), and for each offspring you may also add one same‑species animal from a house; in 2–3 player games a Bonus Breeding gives one extra offspring in another Enclosure if you had at least one offspring. (See pages 5 and 7.)

Yes — when an Enclosure is completed you immediately remove its animals and return them to the supply, but you may place exactly one of those animals into an empty house if you have space (otherwise it also returns); then you immediately choose and place an Attraction in your construction area. (See page 6.)

If the game ends with Animal Breeding and multiple players complete their construction area in the same phase, the player with more animals wins (ties can produce multiple winners); other rankings follow the usual rules for ending with the main action (fewer free spaces, then more animals as tiebreaker). (See page 8.)
