- do you have the CORRECT partner zoo ? Animals with a partner-zoo prerequisite require you to have the same zoo as their continent
- have you played Special Waza Program ? It forbids you to play some animals.
- do your special enclosure fulfills the WATER and ROCK CONSTRAINTS ? These constraints are for both special and regular enclosure, not just for standard enclosures only

You can NEVER be blocked by Venom :
- use the sponsor card to get money, using x-tokens if necessary
- if sponsor card does not have enough strength and you dont have xtoken to boost it, you can simply take a xtoken from the action card with a venom token on it, this will remove the venom token

Jan 18th 2024 2:59 • == I clearly have 7 research icons but I get the message "gains 2 conservation (Research Zoo)" ==
Look at the previous message, I will probably say "cannot have more than 41 conservation"
- Ark Nova has a hard cap of 41 conservation points, any gained after that are lost
- the system will grant as many as possible, which sometimes means that end game scoring cards will give you less than the value listed on the card

Don't build on top of the gate icon on your map. This will negate your map power. This is not a bug. Maps do not have memory of what's there.
