## Tips for Boss Mission

This boss mission requires the player to ride the Hairodactyl for an extended period of time, navigating their way through an elevated stampede area featuring rocks scattered around, as well as S-shaped lines of small rocks. Due to the ground being elevated, the Hairodactyl, which gets angry almost immediately, will only rise a very marginal amount every time it swoops, just enough to fly over a small rock. It is important in this boss mission to judge the landing of the swoops very well, and pinpoint the spot where the Hairodactyl is desired to land, as when it flies up, it will be unaffected by small rocks.

## Baby Hairodactyl

* Taming mating animals is 10% quicker
* Flying animals swoop 10% slower

## Trivia

* The Hairodactyl is a play on the 1970's hippie culture and fashion, as can be seen by this image, in its appearance and description.
	+ The Hairodactyl's name is a portmanteau of 'hair' and 'pterodactyl', which references the long hair of hippies.
	+ The Hairodactyl's Mercedes-Benz logos on its wings are possibly a mistake or a play at the Mercedes logo and peace symbol's similarity.
	+ The Baby Hairodactyl's abilities "Ridden animals are 3% slower" and "Taming mating animals is 10% quicker" may both reference hippie culture. Riding animals slower may reference how the use of drugs tends to slow the mind and body down, while taming mating animals quicker may reference the "love" aspect of "Peace and Love", the typical hippie mantra.
	+ The Hairodactyl is one of three animals that reference hippie culture, the others being the Psychedelephant and Hippiepotamus.

## Notes

* The Hairodactyl was released in version 1.8.0 on the 18th of May 2017, along with Jurassic and most Jurassic animals.

* Ride past 800m in Mountains.

**Note:** Its chance of appearing is medium due to it being a tier 3 animal. It will appear in just over half the runs the player does, and never before 800m.

## Trivia

* The Honey Bear is a play on a real life honey bee.
* The description implies that the Honey Bear is merely a bear disguising as a bee. "The perfect crime" most likely means to steal honey from the bees, because of the fact that bears love honey (though in reality, they are attracted to entire beehives).

## Notes

* The Honey Bear was released in version 1.1.0 on the 26th of July 2016 along with Mountains and all other Mountains species.
Golden Kirin

The **Golden Kirin** is the seventh kirin in zoo order. It can be found in the stampede when the player upgrades their kirin habitat to level 5 or higher.

## Appearance

The Golden Kirin is identical to its base counterpart, however, its body is completely coated in a lustrous golden tint. Its spiky beard, antlers, scales and fur are all gold.

## Description

*Kirins are considered a symbol of good luck, so a Golden Kirin must be incredibly lucky!*

* Kirin tamed.
* Kirin habitat upgraded to level 5 or higher.
* Ride past 2200m in Great Wall (found sitting on a cloud off the side of the stampede).

## Baby Golden Kirin

* Rare animals appear 10% more often
* *Energy drains 2% slower in the Great Wall (passive)*

## Trivia

* The Golden Kirin's description plays on how gold is considered highly valuable, hence a "Golden Kirin must be incredibly lucky".

## Notes

* The Golden Kirin was released in version 1.24.0 on the 23rd of October 2019 on iOS and the 25th of October on Android, along with all pangolins, roosters, other kirins and VIP animals.
* The description contained an error upon release, where "Kirin" was missing an 's' to mark plurality.
	+ This was corrected at an unknown date.

## Baby Kungfu Ostrich

* Ridden animals are 8% faster
* *Taming animals is 1% quicker (passive)*

## Trivia

* Its name and appearance reference Kung Fu, a Chinese martial art.
* The Kungfu Ostrich's appearance is a possible reference to Crane from the Kung Fu Panda franchise, possibly chosen due to Crane and ostriches both being birds.
* The description is a reference to the 1974 song 'Kung Fu Fighting' by Carl Douglas, specifically the line "Everybody was Kung Fu fighting". The song also features in Kung Fu Panda.
* It is one of two animals that reference martial arts, the other being the Martial Arts Panda.

## Notes

Fruit Bat

The **Fruit Bat** is the fifth flying fox in the stampede.

## Appearance

Despite appearing similar in body shape and size to the Flying Fox, the Fruit Bat is a wholly separate entity. It is primarily coloured banana yellow, although its ears are a dark plum or maroon, colour and its yellow-membraned wings are lined with apple-green. On the front of each wing, there are two leaf-like growths of the same colour, with the one closer to the Fruit Bat's head being larger, consisting of two leaves as opposed to one.

## Description

*This flaptastic flying flora-fauna is full of fruity flavours!*

## Requirements

* Sky Zoo upgraded to Outback 5 or greater.
* Flying Fox tamed.
* Ride past 1800m in Outback.

**Note:** Its chance of appearing is extremely low due to it being a tier 5 animal. It will appear randomly but very rarely, and never before 1800m.

## Baby Fruit Bat

* Eating animals is 10% more effective
* Flying animals swoop 8% slower

## Trivia

* The Fruit Bat references the megabat otherwise known as a "fruit bat", although this relation appears to be in name only, as actual fruit bats are named for their diet, not their appearance.
	+ The appearance of the Fruit Bat is a play on the Fruit Bat being a literal fruit, as well as a bat.
		- The description refers to the Fruit Bat as a "flora-fauna", suggesting that it is both a plant and an animal, again referencing how it is, quite literally, a fruit and a bat.
	+ The Baby Fruit Bat's ability where eating animals is 10% more effective is a reference to the name and diet of fruit bats.
* All but three of the words in the Fruit Bat's description start with the letter 'f', an obvious example of alliteration.
* The Baby Fruit Bat is not as close in appearance to its parent as most other baby animals are in that its snout is rounder and its nose is black, invoking the appearance of a banana.

## Notes

* The Fruit Bat was released in version 1.3.0 on the 13th of October 2016 along with Outback and all other Outback species.
Hindsight

The **Hindsight** is the sixth hind in the game by zoo order. It is a secret animal, meaning that the player must complete a secret mission in order to find and then tame it.

## Appearance

The Hindsight has a zesty green colour, similar to a dark lime green or even a leaf green, featured as its main torso colour. Its hooves are a rich dark brown, with thin beige bands at the ankles. Brown antlers and comically large thick-rimmed light brown glasses sit on its head. A dark grey grill that appears to have been forcibly bent off its original location is lodged in the Hindsight's neck, representing a fence that the Hindsight got its head stuck in.

## Description

*It seemed like a good idea at the time…*

## Requirements

* Olympus 1 unlocked.
* Ceryneian Hind tamed.
* Travel on any hind for 30 seconds (approximately 1250m) uninterrupted in Olympus.

**Note:** Due to it being a secret animal, it will appear **every time** the player completes the above requirements.

## Baby Hindsight

* Ridden animals are 4% faster
* Jump from animals 8% higher

## Trivia

* The Hindsight is a play on the word hindsight, which means to look back on what has been done. The description and appearance reflect this.

## Notes

* The Hindsight was released on the 18th of August 2017 in version 1.10.0 along with Olympus and the first five Olympus species.
* There is a popular myth in which it is believed that the Hindsight can be discovered when the player travels 1200m or 1250m on a single hind. This is incorrect, with testing proving that, like the Diabuffalo, that the mission is time based.

Dreamy Trip

**Dreamy Trip** is a seasonal event first introduced in version 1.52.1 that comes in different seasons.

## About

Dreamy Trip is an event that is based on the pass system which is used by many games. There are 50 tiers in total, with 25 tiers in the Silver Trip and 25 tiers in the Golden Trip. To move on to the next level/tier, you must collect tokens based on the season's theme during the run. You must run into them in order to collect them, similar to Crates. Each time you collect a specific number of tokens, you will get a new reward and move on to the next tier. The higher your level, the more rewards you will get.

### Silver Trip

The Silver Trip is the free section of the Dreamy Trip. Usually, it gives low rewards to encourage the player to purchase the Golden Trip. With the Silver Trip, you can collect a maximum of 40 tokens per day, excluding Dreamy Trip Season 9, where the player could collect 50 tokens per day.

### Golden Trip

The Golden Trip can only be unlocked through in-app purchase. All animals that get released during the Dreamy Trip can only be obtained from purchasing the Golden Trip. It provides a great value, and the rewards are valuable. With the Golden Trip, the maximum number of tokens collected per day is increased to 60.

### Platinum Combo

The Platinum Combo is basically a combination of the Golden Trip and its features and a 'Large Expansion Pass' which upgrades your ship 5 times.

## Seasons

Dreamy Trip offers different seasons with different themes. Any animal or hat released in this event is always related to the current season's theme.

From its chin hangs a purple beard, styled in a point, and its collar is comprised of a ring of triangular fabric, giving a spike-like appearance. Its clothing includes a beige shirt with a cyan tinge, featuring brown elastic cuffs, which covers its burgundy body, visible at the legs and wrists. On each limb, the Faunted has a dark blue bracelet with a thin, light blue stripe at the top. From its left hand, the Faunted emits another light blue ball of light, as well as a light blue lightning bolt.

* **In habitat:** The Faunted stands and walks around, occasionally flexing its left bicep by straining its arm in the air.

## Trivia

* The Faunted name is a portmanteau of the words 'faunus' (mythological half-human, half-goat; close to Satyr) and 'haunted'.
	+ The description plays on rhyme, involving three adjectives that are relevant to the Faunted's appearance ending in -aunting.

## Notes

* The Faunted was released in version 1.24.0 on the 23rd of October 2019 on iOS and the 25th of October on Android, along with all pangolins, roosters, kirins and other VIP animals.
