Chaos Theory

  • Jurassic World cleanses Isla Sorna of the Dinosaurs and even captured the Spinosaurus. Masrani, amazed and curious of this unusual creation, plans to build a facility in Africa to further study the creature. The Native wildlife may interfere with operations. You can go on expeditions but you can also receive offers for fossils. But be careful, some may be scams. Poachers are also a threat, so be on the lookout


Challenge

  • Build a park in South Africa. Wild animal interference and poaching poss a threat to the park and its best to avoid wildlife reservations.
 
Fire is the more typical disaster I'd imagine for Savanna, granted it's hard to imagine how it'd actually work (probably a grass fire) and what you'd be able to do about it (backburning or fire fighting maybe?).

I feel like a terrestrial crocodile might be good, something like Araripesuchus or Simosuchus, maybe Kaprosuchus. Sarcosuchus and Stomatosuchus are some amphibious candidates.

Nothosaurus is the wrong animal for this DLC. I would go for Sarcosuchus.

Quote from a paper: "Nothosaurus has thus far only been reported from warm epicontinental seas at tropical and subtropical paleolatitudes (Western and Central Europe, Israel, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia and South China" https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0188509

I guess it is a bit loose, being only from southern Tunisia.

For an expansion the roster would probably be a bit loose anyway, with the focus more so being the maps and extras, like plot and scenery.

Tornados are another one to look out for, especially in South Africa.

Sigilmassasaurus is known from limited remains; and all of the land based piscivores currently in the game, with the exception of Deinocheirus, are Spinosaurid species. Alanqa is known only from five fragments of the front upper and lower jaws, and possibly a neck vertebra. I know a lot of people have asked for Nothosaurus and Rugops to be added to the game. However, Rugops is only known from a partial skull. I think Nothosaurus and Dicraeosaurus could be good species to have in this pack.
Some good species that could work for this pack are:
Masiakasaurus, a genus of small predatory noasaurid dinosaurs from the Late Cretaceous of Madagascar. In Malagasy, masiaka means "vicious"; thus, the genus name means "vicious lizard". Masiakasaurus is thought have consumed small vertebrates, fish, invertebrates, and possibly even fruits based on the unique structure of its teeth.

Elaphrosaurus, a genus of ceratosaurian theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 154 to 150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic Period in what is now Tanzania in Africa.
1688689979891.png

Nqwebasaurus, a basal coelurosaur and is the basal-most member of the coelurosaurian clade Ornithomimosauria from the Early Cretaceous of South Africa.[2] The name Nqwebasaurus is derived from the Xhosa word "Nqweba" which is the local name for the Kirkwood district, and "thwazi" is ancient Xhosa for "fast runner". Currently it is the oldest coelurosaur in Africa and shows that basal coelurosaurian dinosaurs inhabited Gondwana 50 million years earlier than previously thought. Nqwebasaurus has the unofficial nickname "Kirky", due to being found in the Kirkwood.

Rahonavis, A genus of bird-like theropods from the Late Cretaceous of what is now northwestern Madagascar. It is known from a partial skeleton found in Maevarano Formation rocks at a quarry near Berivotra, Mahajanga Province. It was originally the first African coelurosaur until the Nqwebasaurus was discovered in 2000. The name Rahonavis means, approximately, "cloud menace bird", from Malagasy rahona (RA-hoo-na, "cloud" or "menace") + Latin avis "bird". It is believed that Rahonavis was capable of powered flight, but this is still being debated.

Mbiresaurus, (meaning "Mbire reptile") an extinct genus of basal sauropodomorph dinosaur from the Late Triassic Pebbly Arkose Formation of Zimbabwe. The genus is known from a nearly complete skeleton. Mbiresaurus represents one of Africa’s earliest known definitive dinosaurs.

tosaurus, a genus of titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur that lived in Madagascar from 70 to 66 million years ago, at the end of the Cretaceous Period. The discovery of tosaurus, known by the single species tosaurus krausei marked the first time a titanosaur had been recovered with an almost perfectly intact skeleton, complete with skull. The generic name tosaurus is derived from to (a giant deity in Malagasy folklore credited for the geographical features of the land[4]) and sauros, which is Greek for lizard.

Antetonitrus, a genus of sauropod dinosaur found in the Early Jurassic Elliot Formation of South Africa. The only species is Antetonitrus ingenipes. As one of the oldest known sauropods, it is crucial for the understanding of the origin and early evolution of this group. It was a quadrupedal herbivore, like all of its later relatives, but shows primitive adaptations to use the forelimbs for grasping, instead of purely for weight support. The name is derived from the Latin ante- ("before") and tonitrus ("thunder"), which refers to its existence, before other known sauropods, specifically Brontosaurus ("thunder lizard").
1688690886092.png

Afrovenator, a genus of megalosaurid theropod dinosaur from the Middle to Late Jurassic Period of northern Africa. The remains of Afrovenator were discovered in 1993 in the Tiourarén Formation of the department of Agadez in Niger.
1688691080402.png

Lurdusaurus, a genus of massive and unusually shaped iguanodont dinosaur found in the Elrhaz Formation in Niger from the early Cretaceous period. Lurdusaurus has a highly atypical body plan for an iguanodont, with a small skull, long neck, rotund torso, and powerful forelimbs and claws, somewhat reminiscent of a ground sloth. Its metacarpals (wrist bones) are fused and reinforced into a large block, and the thumb spike is remarkably enormous. These would have allowed the hand to have functioned almost like a ball-and-chain flail. Lurdusaurus is estimated to have been 7–9 m (23–30 ft) long and 2 m (6 ft 7 in) high when on all-fours, but its stomach would have been only 70 cm (2 ft 4 in) off the ground. It may have weighed 2.5–5.5 t (2.8–6.1 short tons), conspicuously heavy for an iguanodontid this size. Some think it lived a lifestyle similar to what Hippos do today.

Anhanguera, a genus of pterodactyloid pterosaur known from the Early Cretaceous Romualdo Formation of Brazil and the Late Cretaceous Kem Kem Group of Morocco. This pterosaur is closely related to Ornithocheirus, but belongs in the family Anhangueridae. The generic name comes from the Tupi words añanga, meaning "spirit protector of the animals" + wera "bygone".
1688692341407.png

Manemergus, a genus of polycotylid plesiosaur from the Late Cretaceous from Morocco. Manemergus was described in 2005. The type specimen was discovered close to the town of Goulmima (Tizi-n-Imnayen) in Morocco's High Atlas mountains, in the same locality as another polycotylid, Thililua, was discovered.

Angolasaurus, an extinct genus of mosasaur. Definite remains from this genus have been recovered from the Turonian and Coniacian of Angola, and possibly the Coniacian of the United States, the Turonian of Brazil, and the Maastrichtian of Niger. Its wide geographic range make it the one of the only Turonian mosasaurs with a transatlantic range.

Besides that, I think you has some nice ideas for possible locations, new decorations, and facilities. I think it would be nice if they gave us some unique plants from that region, like Baobab trees and Kapok trees, as decorations.
