Planet Zoo Animal Colours: A Full List of EVERY Animal Colour

Updated:

Planet Zoo’s colourmorph system added a wider range of colours to its animal library, allowing you to add more variety to your zoo.

Based on real-life colour variations, the animals of Planet Zoo range from subtle shade differences to rare albino and melanistic animals.

I like trying to breed all the different colours, and set myself a goal to collect every colour available. However, I couldn’t find a complete list of all the colourmorphs in the game, so I decided to create my own!

Whether you’re searching for rare variants or just curious about what these colourful creatures look like, I’ve made a list of every single animal along with their colour variations in the Planet Zoo game and all its packs.

In this guide, I have listed all colours, including the special coats that each animal can have, how they are displayed in the information panel, and images of each animal.
