Grow A Garden Mega Safari Harvest FAQs
The Pet Shard Jumbo allows you to upgrade your pet to the Jumbo version. This is one of the best ways to get Jumbo Pets, but the Pet Shard rarely appears in the Shop. Still, if you manage to get one, please use it on your favorite pet.
The Safari Joe NPC spawns in the center of the map next to the Safari Harvest Event. You can easily identify the character by the Jeep and the cool Safari Hat the character wears above his head.
The Lion is the best pet from the Safari Event because it can apply the Safari Mutation, which cannot be obtained after the end of the Safari Event. But if you have one Lion in your inventory, you can always get the Safari Mutation forever.
