### 4/5 — Please read!!

*2025-08-18, version 3.1.7*

I’ve noticed it looks like you haven’t been reading the reviews.
But I REALLY a need this bug fixed, although you are probably not working on the game anymore. 

There’s this bug that when I don’t have enough enclosures, the animal on screen dosent go away! Which means I have had to delete the game over and over forcing me to restart!! It’s a really great game I love it but that’s a huge issue that’s really annoying. :(

### 5/5 — fav 😊

*2022-12-22*

### 3/5 — Dear kangzoo

*2022-12-09, version 3.1.7*

There are a lot of glitches like there is no way to get out if you don’t have room for the animals I had to delete the game 3 times because of glitches but I love the game so can you please fix the glitches

### 4/5 — More Animals PLEASE READ

*2022-11-17, version 3.1.7*

So there are lots of unique animals but can you please add some more animals and plants? I found 29 animals out of the 31 but my national parks say I found all species please fix this. Some animal examples are the southern cassowary, the fairy wren, saltwater and freshwater crocodiles, inland taipans, coastal taipans and brown tiger snakes (I know many more but I stuck with These ones feel free to add others) so please add them!
