A SCORING EXAMPLE
Q
:
All players but me have taken trucks. May I still continue taking
actions?

Yes, you may take as many as you wish and you can. But on each turn,
you have the usual 3 possible actions. You could, for example, take
several money actions or draw tiles, placing them on the last delivery

last truck does the current round end.

No.

No.
Q:
May I change a manager to a trainer with the money action “move”?

I have trainer on 2 adjacent spaces of a Dolphin. Do I get then 2 addi-
tional points?
A:
Yes.
Q:
May I still take money actions after I have taken a delivery truck?
A:
No. Not even in the last round of the game.

ANIMAL DIRECTORY
Hippopotamus:
this herbivore is related to pigs. It is the
second largest land animal and can achieve the amazing speed
of approximately 30 mph despite its weight, which can reach
10000 pounds and a length of up to 14 feet.
Dolphin:
this pleasant mammal is considered by many the
most intelligent animal and is particularly noted for its acroba-
tic ability and its social behavior. The dolphin can dive up to
1500 feet deep for as long as 15 minutes before returning to the
surface to breathe.
Orca:
this large whale can be up to 25 feet long and 20000
pounds. They prefer Arctic and Antarctic waters. This remarkably
successful hunter is the fastest well-known sea animal capable
of speeds up to 90 mph.
Sea Turtle:
these armored animals have been paddling around
for about 200 million years, mostly in tropical and subtropical
seas. They follow the currents and, thus, range across large
areas. They leave the water to reproduce by laying eggs in the
land areas along their long sea routes.
Penguin:
they are found primarily in the cold regions of the
Southern Hemisphere and are very well adapted to that life.
They are excellent divers, but are not fast swimmers. However,
they can maneuver well and at a high rate to evade predators.
They can also leap up to 7 feet from the water.
Polar Bear:
this loner from the far north has a great sense of
smell and is very important in the traditions of the Inuit, who
call them "Nanuk". Despite its size and its weight, the polar
bear can easily float on the sea for as far as 40 miles.
Sea Lion:
these very social animals form large colonies and can
be seen basking at numerous rocky islands in the sea. They are
not the fastest swimmers, but among the most acrobatic in the
water.
Crocodile:
these creatures can reach 20 feet in length and are
direct descendants of the Archosaur of the Trias. They are per-
fectly camouflaged and spend the majority of their lives in the
water, often only showing eyes and nostrils above the surface.
