DLC18 discussion and predictions

You could also argue Kirk's isn't there for the dik-dik

Now, that would be funny if planet zoo literally just put Dik-Dik instead of Kirk's

 

[Marvinb]

I personally hope it isn't, the Coquerel's is right there!

The crowned is more common in europe, so its not without merit

 

[The Aardvark]

We currently don't have any Coquerel's in the Dictionary, but we do have "Crowned" I'm guessing.

Even if it's not the Coquerel's, I'm sure leaf will release an updated version mod.

"Crowned" most likely refers to the crane we already have, maybe "Coquerel" simply wasn't added to the dictionary... Just like how "Kirk's" wasn't added for the Dik-Dik (assuming that it would be called Kirk's Dik-Dik cause that's the species/subspecies most commonly kept)

Red-Crowned Crane, Culvier’s also is not included.

I really want to believe that we'll get a secretary so here's my theory:
What if the word "secretary" is still in the dictionary, but they left it there cause it's an actual word in the English language that doesn't necessarily correlate to an animal? Like, sure, our minds immediately jump to the secretary bird, but "secretary" is also its own word... IDK, I'm kind of scared of this pack now

Since it was the ONLY animal.in that pack that i would actually be excited about i think is very likely that is not part of it that's just my luck

Didnt stop them from just doing takin, so i can see them just calling it dik dikd

Oh didn't know that, but subjectively coquerels are better. Fight me

 

[PlanetSoyJak]

So are the 3 animals confirmed, theres literally no other path other then the animal Specie's of Markhor, Dik-Dik, and Sifaka

Or just dik

The thing there are four species of dik-dik, so Frontier kind of has to pick one. There's only one species of takin.

Nothing is confirmed, while we have good leads we have nothing set in stone.

Denial. Step one.

Crowned has 6 European holdings and Coquerel has 3 European and 12 US holdings.

 

[RightWhale]

Denial. Step one.

I’m gonna speed run all the stages at this point, can’t spell denial without RightWhale!

(especially if it turns out we aren’t getting the secretary bird or any bird for that matter)

 

[PlanetSoyJak]

If the pack is looking with a Echidna, Tree Kangaroo, Sifaka, Hamadrya's, African Spurred Tortoise, Dik-Dik, Secretary and Markhor. This may be the best pack for me since the Wetlands pack.

Isn’t it golden, mishmi and sichuan takins?

 

[Eletan888]

Those are subspecies technically unless they've changed it

 

[Marvinb]

Pretty sure there are different takin species aswell:
Golden takin (Budorcas bedfordi
Mishmi takin(Budorcas taxicolor
Sichuan takin (Budorcas tibetana
Bhutan takin (Budorcas whitei

Edit: whoops didnt intend for those to be links, i just copied them over from wikipedia

I have to agree honestly or at least since tropical. Like tropical, my issue isn't with what's being added (allegedly) but with what's lacking (South American animals).
