Wildlife Sanctuary

Wildlife Sanctuary's icon

"Use on a planet to designate it as a wildlife sanctuary, allowing you to place a variety of abducted creatures to live in safety."

The Wildlife Sanctuary allows you to place up to 30 species of creatures on a planet. However, you and other empires cannot colonize nor terraform a planet once it is designated as a sanctuary. Thus if you wish to have a full set of plants to easily grab for a full ecosystem transfer, terraform the planet fully before you place the Wildlife Sanctuary.

The Wildlife Sanctuary designation can be removed by destroying the building planted. Removing it will kill off all species except those than can fit in the current terrascore.

If you place the sanctuary down, you could see the actual nests of the animals.

Given the above restrictions, planets with no spice resources (which cannot be colonized by the player) are excellent choices for Wildlife Sanctuaries. The planet where the player finds the crashed UFO in his home system is one such world, as is the planet with the Grox-destroyed colony.
