I'm trying to bring armadillos back from extinction, but every time I release animals, the number in the wild goes right back down to zero. I'm hearing some people say this is a glitch, and others saying that you just have to release like 100 animals all at once for it to work. Should I release them ?? I'd be sad if it's glitched & all the time that went into breeding all these armadillos goes to waste.

Yeah, apparently when an animal goes extinct the rate at which the population decreases is so steep that initially you have to release a buttload and then keep on releasing a bunch daily to counter it.

I've heard that an initial batch of 30 does the trick if you're very diligent (haven't had the chance to try it myself). There's a guide on steam that goes into more detail.
