Rare Species
![]()
DescriptionRARE SPECIES is a 2-4 player memory game endorsed by UK botanist/conservationist David Bellamy. The game contains a playing board, four conservation park boards, four playing pieces and 24 rare species playing cards. These cards illustrate breeding pairs of 12 of the world's most endangered and rare species of wildlife. The females have cards with pink backs and the males have blue backs. The 12 female cards are placed face down on 12 yellow squares in the middle of the board. The 12 male cards are placed face up on the 12 green squares that surround the female cards. The playing pieces are placed on the circular brown track, next to one of the corners of the board. Players take it in turns to roll the dice and move their playing piece in a clockwise direction around the board. Once moved the playing piece will be next to one of the male animal cards. The player attempts to make a pair by turning over one of the female cards and showing it to the other players: When a conservationist lands next to the male of any species they may make their play as for the opening rounds if they have no females in their bamboo cages. If, however they have a female or females caged at the entrance to their conservation park, and they think that one of them is the mate of the male that they have just landed next to, they may attempt to turn that female face up: Unscrupulous conservationists may also "steal" breeding females from other player's conservation parks. When a player lands alongside a male and they think that one of the other players has its mate in one of their cages then they can attempt to steal it by turning it over: No more than one conservationist can occupy the same space on the outside track, and spaces that are not next to males (i.e. the male has already been claimed) are not counted for movement purposes. At the end of the game, when all the females have been paired, the player with the greatest number of breeding pairs in their conservation park is the winner.
