Common Ostrich

Common Ostrich (Struthio camelus) is a terrestrial habitat animal in Planet Zoo 2, listed for the Savannah biome and native to Africa. Its IUCN category in the Zoopedia is "Least concern", and it ships with the base game.

Males reach about 2.5 m in height and 125 kg; females about 1.85 m and 110 kg. Use these figures when sizing viewing areas and shelters before the full habitat requirements are confirmed at launch.

For barriers, the Zoopedia export lists grade 2 with a minimum height of 1.25 m. Water barriers are not accepted for this species. Mixing it with other species means taking the highest grade and height among them; the barrier planner does that for you.
