I would love to see a Woodlands Pack including the Hedgehog, Red squirrel, American Mink/Pine martin, American black bear and the Large marsh grasshopper as the exibit animal. This pack would also include different types of wood and lots of new tree spices and understory plants.
Regarding marine animal pack: we need to have ability to customize the backdrop of our zoo!!! A zoo on an island or archipelago or isthmus or any kind of sea side would be so cool
I love the burrowing owl. I live in Southwestern Florida, which has one of the largest populations of them in the state. You see them early in the morning perched on mail boxes. Maybe giving them inter species bonus with gopher tortoises would be good since they sometimes live in their abandoned burrows. Also, the idea of having a Zoobumafu in the game might make me buy it for console in the future.
Admittedly it's kind of sad to see large birds at zoos. But it is interesting that you didn't include any raptors. Eagles, hawks, Falcons, owls. Also a huge omission is the Kingfisher.
I would release - South America (8 animals) - Africa (5 animals) - North America (5 animals) - Exhibits (16 animals) - Aquariums (16 animals) - Aviaries (16 animals)
My weird mind says a Nuisance Animal Pack would be hilarious. The flagship animal would be the raccoon. Seagulls and magpies would also go on the list along with the ability to build a proper aviary. If adding a proper aviary is too difficult, they can be walkthrough exhibits. Then the exhibit species, the locust/Short-horned grasshopper, and the brown rat/Norway rat. To beef up the roster, I'd add the American wild hog and the feral cat (Felis catus), and maybe even the white-tailed deer. They wouldn't be too much different from extant species, but they're still some added variety. I'd also like to see new information kiosk options. Maybe one on the impact of pests, and another on how not all introduced species are invasive.
my deepest apologies to your budgees, but i would greatly prefer the African Oxpecker as the ending exhibit species for the avian pack, as its one that i personally have wanted to see in the game for a very long time
If we got a roster like this id be content with it. If support ends with the next pack the game will be left in a very unbalanced spotwith very obvious holes, that a final pack, even if larger like 12 animals just physically cant fix, so i really REALLY hope we get atleast this year support
Why do game companies just stop supporting games like this, there's still so many opportunities and to finish and never touch it again so quickly is kinda sad, I would have adored if they kept a small team on it working with the community to keep creating amazing stuff for such a never ending game. Really wish they won't just abandon it
Here are some of my takes on these packs Marine Animal Pack: West Indian Manatee (Flagship) Pacific Walrus Brown Pelican or Australian Pelican Caribbean Flamingo Green Sea Turtle Cownose Ray Zebra Shark Seahorses and Sea Dragons for the Exhibits: Common Seahorse, Big-Belly Seahorse, Pacific Seahorse, Weedy Sea Dragon and Leafy Sea Dragon Primate Pack: Geoffroy's Spider Monkey Hamadryas Baboon Coquerel's Sifaka Mantled Guereza Tamarins and Marmosets: Golden Lion Tamarin, Cotton-Top Tamarin, Emperor Tamarin, Common Marmoset and Goeldi's Marmoset Global Animal Pack: No real idea for what animals could be in this one, its hard to choose Same for the Avian Animal Pack
We have to get the Walrus!!!! We just have to. We just have to. Like have to have to. The game will not be complete without them. BTW Sea horses are not fish. Just saying lol. You called it a fish like 4 times.
