It’s time to go back to the park and help Claire in the latest Jurassic World: Evolution DLC Claire’s Sanctuary. Bryce Dallas Howard returns to voice her role from the “Jurassic World” series.

Along with bringing in surviving dinosaurs to Sanctuary, you are tasked with developing the new Paleobotany program where you can grow prehistoric plants in a new greenhouse building. The plants grown in the greenhouse can be used in feeders to feed your herbivores but it’s not as easy as it sounds. Some plants are harmful to certain species while others are not.
