Species comparison

Compare up to four animals using sourced habitat categories, content packs, biome tags and conservation status. Keep your own observations in the separate manual worksheet.

Published animal details are sourced; no gameplay verification is claimed. · Last reviewed 2026-09-23

Compare sourced animal profiles

Select up to four animals. Biome overlap does not establish compatibility. These are Frontier’s prelaunch classifications; numerical care requirements remain unverified.

Manual comparison worksheet · your saved observations

Entered values (user-entered; source shown per row)

Values in the same column are only comparable when the user declares the same unit. Blank cells mean “no data”, never zero.

Comparison (computed)

Formulas: min = smallest entered value · max = largest · range = max − min · comparisons exclude blank cells.

Normalized comparison
Field	Min	Max	Range	Entries
Space per animal (m²)	No values entered in this column.
Food cost (per period)	No values entered in this column.
Social group size	No values entered in this column.
Purchase price	No values entered in this column.

Unsupported: compatibility, welfare scores and breeding values are never computed. This tool never declares a species “better”.

Formula, data version and scope

Species comparison — formula, data version and scope
Item	Value
Formula	The database comparison displays published classifications without scoring suitability. The manual worksheet computes minimum, maximum and range across your entered positive values.
Data version	Official Zoopedia profiles · checked September 20, 2026
Source scope	Each database field links to Frontier’s prelaunch Zoopedia. The manual worksheet remains user-entered and does not update the shared records.
Assumptions	Official prelaunch details may change. · Natural history and biome overlap do not establish game requirements or cohabitation. · Manual worksheet values require matching units and build context.
Unsupported	Numerical habitat, temperature and social-group requirements are not verified. · No compatibility or breeding prediction. · No Planet Zoo (2019) requirements.

What do the evidence labels mean?

Confirmed: Directly supported by an official source captured for this edition, or a statement about the wiki’s own editorial method. Announced: Stated by an official source; the detailed implementation is not yet verified. Observed: First-hand gameplay observation; not recreated or tested by this wiki. Reported: Provided through a brief or secondary channel; not yet independently rechecked against an official source. Inferred: A reasonable reading of an official statement; not stated outright and not guaranteed. Unresolved: No verifiable evidence exists yet. Published as an open question. Outdated: Superseded by a newer statement or from an earlier edition.
