Summer DLC Speculation 2023

The African Crested Porcupine also has range in Italy, so Europe will be represented, and imo that gives the ACP the advantage. I've been predicting the whole time that if we were to get a desert pack, It would be Africa/Arabian Peninsula heavy with a couple of animals from the Americas and maybe an animal from the Outback.
each species has its own advantages:
  • cape/south african crested is the biggest and screams most subsaharan african of the three being from east and south africa (basically what we think of when we think africa/savannah/safari), best interspecies bonus candidate with meerkat and the most common african porcupine in zoos worldwide
  • indian crested is the most common porcupine in eu zoos and along with cape the most common zoo porcupine worlwide, also is the most european for being found in the aegean sea coast (if north african porcupine's italy range is not native like marvinb said), it adds to middle east and india rep and also adds the most biomes
  • north african crested is the least common porcupine in zoos worldwide, its eu rep is questionable due to nativity question and is also not as african as cape, but it does have an advantage in terms of interspecies bonus if added with african spurred tortoise, also adds many biomes like indian
 
I think that there's a 80% chance that it will be a desert pack, a 15% chance that it will be an Africa pack, and a 5% chance that it will be something else.

I personally couldnt care less which species we end up getting. I mean they are so similar that i couldnt tell them apart without researching specific differences.
So even if we get the indian its not gonna stop me from using it in african sections and vice versa
 
I'm manifesting it together with you, dear. Give us our first donkey and not the third Rhino, please.
as much as i want the african wild a.s.s, it is still an equus, so according to this logic it will be our third equus in the game after zebra and p horse, while all three rhinos are in a different genus, meaning they are less related.
 
Lets hope snake is reference to secretary bird being snake killer. Im seriously frustrated how horned viper inclusion is.

even real zoos do this so you are good :D
i've seen so many accredited zoos mix indian porcupines with meerkats, african mongooses, aardvark and spurred tortoise
 
I'm still banking on Desert. I just think that most of the most highly requested desert animals come from Africa. For me personally the only desert animals that I want outside of Africa are the collard peccary and ocelot.

*Anyone else coming to terms that the likelihood of getting a Hamadryas baboon is low, seemingly only because Frontier has a thing against primates. 🤣
 
I'm hoping the DLC is Safari. If it is I'm thinking the continent of Africa will be complete (with the addition of maybe 1 or 2 animals later)!
