Dominant Species
← All Dominant Species questions
How are points awarded when a Domination action scores a tile, and how do ties and lone animals work?
The rulebook's Domination step ranks by species count and gives food chain order for ties, and players agree.

Points go by the number of species on the tile, not the number of matching elements. The animal with the most species takes first place, and the next animals present take second and further places on the terrain's schedule. A lone animal takes first place only, with no second or third. Ties in species count are broken by food chain order. The Dominance card is then taken by the dominant animal, which is separate from the scoring.
