What is Animal Rescue

You work at an animal shelter where lots of animals are brought in every day. You have the task of filling the pens as cleverly as possible, so you can score points. If you plan well, baby animals are even born, which again earns more points. Which animal rescuer scores the most points with the dice?

In Animal Rescue, each player takes a shelter card and a pencil. Remove one white die from the game if fewer than five players are playing.

The player who was the last to pet an animal is the active player and begins the round by throwing all the dice. They then choose one die and place it before them. The player must draw the animal that is on the chosen die in one of the empty pens at the animal shelter. The color of the chosen die determines in which block the animal goes. An animal on the white dice may be placed in any block, except for the baby block. Think carefully about which animal you choose and where it should be drawn because there are various ways to earn points and extra animals.
