Description
Some animals have begun their migration, going around and around in search of a new place to live. Hippos that love both water and land. Huge elephants. And bears that just want to be left alone. "Uhhhh," you can't help but growl as the cards go around. You want to secure the perfect spot, but should you choose a location or an animal first? Take one card at a time and pass the rest around in this "drafting" style game.
You have spectacular savannas, lakes brimming with possibilities, and jungles full of the unknown at your disposal! So, which animals will you welcome in and where will you put them?
Match just the right animals with just the right locations and create the most harmonious national park ever!
