Once you unlock the proton whip upgrade in Revenge of the Savage Planet, you can start doing some exciting things, including catching various creatures on Stellaris Prime for your base’s animal pens.
Capturing creatures on Stellaris Prime is also your first step in studying them in your pens, so swing your lasso and grab a few. The more creatures you catch, the better your research will be!
Complete Guide to Stellaris Prime Creatures and Their Locations
Below, you’ll find a list of where to catch each creature on Stellaris Prime. Some are automatically unlocked as you progress through the main story, but others will take extra effort to find if you want to catch them all for the Kindex.
You can start catching creatures on Stellaris Prime as soon as you get the proton whip in the early stages of the game, so be ready to use your lasso to grab some creatures and bring them back for research.
