How to make animals move to a better location?

I keep putting down a sonic pulse thing but the turtles keep respawning in the same tiny pond, even thought there's a bigger right next to it. I've had this problem too where other animals will cling to there tiny territory even when I make a better one nearby. We really need a last ditch way of manually moving them. I'm on the irradiated city level, so there's no way of making the pond bigger.

Turtles can't travel over land, so you need to excavate/blast a path to connect them into one large pond.

That level doesn't have any excavation tools available, also there's not even 20 animals on the map yet but no more are spawning. Do certain conditions have to be met on the map for more animals to spawn? I've got plenty of empty turtle habitats that are rated ideal.

Ouch. Probably not a rock skipper, either, I guess. If you sonic blast their entire territory, they should disappear. If you can, maybe drop a calcifier or a flash freezer to eliminate that lagoon.

There are certain conditions for animals to spawn, yeah. There's a guide from before the Vita Nova changes, but it's plausible the info about the animal needs are still valid.

I sometimes nuke not-happy species out in hopes that a different one will spawn in some of the prime areas I've created.

I might just have to give up, the ponds are a biome and they are unaffected by the flash freeze or the calcifier, I will check out hte guide though.
