I think that we either have 1 or 3 packs now, cause it would be strange to get 2 by like August but then stop before the 5th anniversary. I’d do Latin America as the May pack, Safari Animal Pack for August, and a global wrap up pack in November. If we just have one I still think Américas.

I would like an around the world safari!
- Hamadryas baboon
- Nile crocodile
- Grey crowned crane
- Blackbuck
- Guar
- Greater Rhea
- Patagonian Mara
- Exhibit: anything, doesn’t bother me
Didn't have them anywhere yet, but they also don't make the correct noises, right? I forgot. So so sad. If that trend goes on for PZ2, I'd rather stick to the sequel that love to detail has been put into.
My version:
1. Masai giraffe -
️2. Grant's gazelle
3. Beisa oryx
4. Grevy's zebra
5. Common eland
6. Secretary bird
7. African wildcat
8. Kenya horned viper
Pretty much this replacing the guereza with a baboon and the rock python for a cobra.
Those would be nice options aswell. I just chose the guereza because it fits the safari theme alot better imo and id assume the baboon comes in the wrap up pack.
The cobra im actually not that hyped about and id rather get a good looking large constrictor
The Americas and a Global pack seem to dominant these pages. Are there any biomes you think would be an interesting theme?
Tropical always deserves a revisit, just call it the Rainforest pack and you are good.
I know it’s not a biome, but coastal could also work well.
I convinced you can still easily do an interesting pack for every single biome
DLC: Mountains Animal Pack
- Domestic Yak
- Alpine Marmot
- Goodfellow’s Tree Kangaroo
- Spectacled Bear
- Barbary Macaque
- Gelada
- Bukharan Markhor
- Chinese Giant Salamander (E)
I’m surprised people are discussing a Safari Pack and Americas Pack (two of the least needed packs) when we could get so many heavy hitters in a Mountains Pack alone. Plus, as one of the most interesting biomes, we have yet to receive a pack which covers it properly! Eurasia and Europe come close, but not enough. A dedicated Mountains pack is needed!
Using the same pack i made in a buddle with only two changes:
Secretary bird
️Serval
Dik dik
Sulcata tortoise
Greater rhea
Black Howler monkey
Blackbuck
King cobra
In a perfect world serval would be replaced by hamadryas baboon and the dik dik by another SA animal, but considering it's frontier we are talking about...
As far as new biomes, coastal and alpine would be a hit.
If we do get more than 1 pack this year, I think alpine or colder themed pack would be nice! It’s not like there aren’t cold weather animals people want.
- Hamadryas Baboon: Adds a classic baboon
- Guereza: Popular tropical monkey
- Grey Crowned Crane: Excellent bird
- Serval: My favorite small cat
- Nile Crocodile: A lot of people want one
- Spurred Tortoise: I kind of want this one
- Honey Badger: Somewhat popular meme animal
- Chameleon: Very popular exhibit animal
I'd love to see a broad Woodlands Pack, for deciduous, coniferous and dry forest animals. If you wanted a narrower theme, I'd say a Dry Forest Pack has a lot of potential. An example animal pack for dry forests could include (if I were to go absolutely wild):
1) Central American spider monkey OR Coquerel's sifaka
2) Grivet monkey
3) Ocellated turkey
4) Indian star tortoise OR radiated tortoise
5) Blackbuck OR greater kudu OR Kirk's dik-dik
6) Numbat OR common brushtail possum
7) Ocelot
Exhibit) Veiled chameleon
And those are just some potential options - things like the rhinoceros iguana, a genet or civet, the Malagasy giant rat and all sorts of deer, antelope and cattle live in dry forests. If birds were wanted for a walkthrough exhibit, most macaws inhabit dry forests.
1. Secretary Bird
2. Grey Crowned Crane
3. Southern Ground Hornbill
4. Hamadryas Baboon
5. Honey Badger
6. Kirk’s Dik Dik
7. Greater Kudu (personal preference, I think the spurred tortoise would be much better received)
8. Chameleon
