Facts and route notes
Category: Animals
Focus: High-value non-pig animals and baby animals
Checklist: Skip pigs because they cannot receive Golden Animal Crackers. Favor animals with valuable processed goods, rare products, or completion utility. Avoid giving a cracker to an animal you may sell soon because the cracker disappears with the animal.
