Myers Sunshine Happiness Zoo
Hello! In this scenario I have only the journalist's goal left. The requirement is that I increase the comfort of the animals more than 90%, before their arrival I already have the comfort around the animals in 92% or 93%... it does not go below 90% in all the time that your visit lasts... my question is What am I doing wrong? The goal is not achieved, I thought that maybe the journalist will arrive with less than 90% and will have to increase it during the visit... any help?

Thanks in advance!

It was the same with me - the satisfaction level of animals was 92% -95%, but as soon as the correspondent arrives, in one of the volunteers he drops sharply and the task fails. I decided it this way: as soon as a message appeared that a correspondent had arrived at my zoo, I immediately sent overseers to all the enclosures he intended to visit. So when the correspondent got there, it was already clean and everyone was fed. :)

Be careful of the winter period .. make sure the habitats have heating where needed so that if they are inspecting during winter, the happiness level isn't dropped before they leave because of the snow.

Also, prior to the visit, remove some of the animals enrichment items, and make that happiness level close or above 90, then when they come visiting place them back in, bringing their happiness back up again. It's fiddly but it will hopefully stop them all of a sudden being unhappy of the boring toy.

And as soles said, cleaning and feeding immediately before the visit with enough staff to keep it up while they are there can help.

I've passed this every time i have played this but most if not all of the career levels required at least 3 restarts while I learnt things.

When the reporter arrives pause the game and click on him to see the list of habitats he is going to visit, at the top of his menu it will say what his first destination is so go to that habitat and check every animal in it to make sure their happiness is over 90%, unlike the inspector he doesn't target one particular animal in a habitat so make sure ALL of them are happy by adding enrichments. After that just check each of the other habitats he has on his list and do the same for them, keep checking his list as he walks round, if he gives less than 5 stars for one of them check the animals in that habitat and try and work out why it failed

I spent so much money so my animals were all happy, constantly. My least happy animal was at 97% and everyone was around 97-100% yet the average only shows 89-90%. I really would call that one a game issue.

Some might see this as too cheesy but I got rid of near half my animals near the end of the scenario. Any where the research wasn't near max or had a constant issue were gone. Made it easier in the end.

I was just about to say the same: if all else fails and it's the last objective that has to be completed, get rid of all the animals except the tortoise which is very easy to keep at 100% welfare. I actually did that once because I suddenly had the same problem while replaying it again even though that never happened before, no idea if it was a bug or something else but the tortoise finally did the trick.

Sorry, slightly old thread, but the welfare percentage includes animals in the trade center. Once I sold the animals there, the welfare went up and I completed the challenge.

OMG. Thank you sooo much. I've tried it all and was stuck with 89%, because I had some sassy peacocks in my trading center. I got rid of those i could sell and the other's I put into a nice habitat and finally managed to!
