For Planet Zoo players who want to add a visually unique shark to their aquatic exhibits, especially during Shark Week events. Skip if you're looking for broader animal packs or gameplay changes—this is purely a cosmetic species addition.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the mod file in the 'OVERRIDE' folder within your Planet Zoo mod directory to ensure it loads correctly.

- If the shark doesn't appear, verify that you have the Aquatic Pack DLC, as aquarium animals typically require it.
