Jurassic World Evolution - How to Sell Dinosaurs

During the first few hours of the game, you’ll probably be tempted to produce as many new dinosaurs as humanly possible. While this is undoubtedly fun, you’ll soon realise that you’re going to have to be a little more choosy when deciding which dinosaurs to create and when. This will leave you with a surplus of fairly useless dinosaurs which are taking up valuable enclosure space. Luckily, you can actually sell dinosaurs in Jurassic World Evolution. Here’s how:

How to Prepare a Dinosaur to Sell

In order to get a dinosaur ready for sale, you’re first going to need to tranquilize it. First, head over to the ACU center and select “tranquilize dinosaur” as a task. Alternatively, you can pilot the chopper yourself and manually sedate the target dinosaur. It’s faster to do the former though. Once the dinosaur is sedated, it’s a matter of sending a helicopter to pick it up.

Selling a Dinosaur in Jurassic World Evolution

Once it’s been hoisted up by the ACU helicopter, you’ll see a button prompt in the bottom left of the screen to sell the captured dinosaur. Press the correct button to sell (triangle on PS4, Y on Xbox One, R on PC), you’ll be asked to confirm the choice, just select yes from the menu. After that, the money will be added to your account, and the dinosaur will go off to its new home, meaning you’ll have more to spend on a cooler, more entertaining dinosaur.
