DLC 19 Speculation

To play Devil's Advocate, aren't we also "in too deep" with Rhinos too? We just need to add Sumatran and Javan to complete the set right?
So I'm not sure why "completing the bears/rattites" was so important. No one ever talks about "completing the seals" or "completing the small cats".
I agree the addition of the white made the black(rhinos of course lol) less important. But it's just 1 spot, it's still an iconic animal, and I can think of 3 bear slots that could easily be removed without much fuss.
ah yes 1 bear or 32 seals and like 40 cats.
The difference between the bear and rhino situation is that everyone (but me) has been happy since we got an african rhino the others dont offer anything besides a good conservation story. Bears and ratites have always offered something new a south American representative or being a desert bear for example the only one that didnt really was the sloth bear. However we have always wanted more ratites bears only really became a big talking point after the sloth bear because of ultimately how close we were and how important the ones left seemed.
Also I would like to point out that even though we say we want to complete the ratites we dont actually we just want one from each distinct group no one is asking for 2 rhea 2 ostrich 3 cassowary and 5 kiwi for the same reasons as no one wants 3 asian rhino.
 
the fact that the reviultionary idea of 4 birds in a single pack would ruin it for you is wild
I would certainly like the possibility of 4 birds in a pack but if 2/4 of them don't interest me then it doesn't mean that much to me
Care to explain? I think these two are my most wanted “plausible” birds.
Its just a personal preference thing I would prefer a lot of other birds that I can actually think of what to build for over these 2 oddballs that I've never seen in zoos and have no idea what to do with them. I just don't see them as exciting to build for in comparison to something like a white stork or pelican.
 
Plot twist: the planet zoo devs ball and add the brown pelican as one of the remaining 2 species.

Honestly, that would be awesome.

my top picks are still coati and mara, but there are a number of animals that would make me really happy: brown pelican, southern screamer, scarlet ibis, roseatte spoonbill, jabiru, burrowing owl, roadrunner, ocelot, squirrel monkey, howler monkey, tamandua, gian armadillo, brazilian tapir and marsh deer.

Maybe wrong thread, but that would bump the Caribbean up to a Green in my eyes. Only thing holding it back is the lack of the Cuban crocodile.

But the American Flamingo (my hope and prediction for this next pack) and Brown Pelican (here’s hoping!) would be an amazing interspecies duo.

I hadn’t really seen either species up until recently but after seeing so much inspiration at Fort Worth, DWA, Brookfield and San Diego Safari Park, it would be really fun to build an arid American zoo focusing on desert wildlife from the Americas.

Some thoughts and questions about the next Planet Zoo update

Hi everyone!

I’ve been thinking about what we might expect from the upcoming update and wanted to share a few ideas and open up the discussion.

Do you think there’s a chance we’ll see a flexicolor upgrade for base game pieces and older DLCs, similar to what we got with the Europe pack? Personally, I feel that would be even more exciting than getting new pieces — it would really breathe new life into the items we already have and expand our creative options.

Another point: some elements from Planet Coaster 2 would fit perfectly into Planet Zoo. The small garden walls and especially the invisible editable fonts would be fantastic additions. The latter, in particular, would make creating signs and labels in Planet Zoo much more intuitive and versatile.

Considering the western theme of the latest Planet Coaster 2 pack, and the rumors of an American-themed DLC for Planet Zoo, I believe some of these pieces could potentially be shared or adapted across both games. That would add a nice layer of cohesion between them.

What about you all — what items or features would you love to see in this new update?

Here is part of the Stone Zoo, with the area in Blue being the Sierra Nevada section. Here are the animals we have in game already that you can use to recreate it:
  1. Collared peccary
  2. Jaguar
  3. Puma
  4. Gila monster
  5. Mexican red knee tarantula (good substitute for what is in the zoo)
  6. Diamondback rattlesnake (good substitute for what is in the zoo)
So already you can get a section of that going, however you don’t have anything for the:
  1. Coati
  2. Falcon
  3. Roadrunner
  4. Bats (not a fruit bat species)
But with the (potential) American flamingo inbound you can also do part of the Caribbean area (in orange).
So this whole section can now be made in Planet Zoo with some missing animals. Still, you have no scarlet ibis, no Barrow’s goldeneye, no macaws, no bush dog, and Jamaican iguana. However using the Antilles iguana would work fine enough.
 
Oh dang, theoretically we could get a gray fox in this pack😱
They live in arid areas and are found all across North America. That'll make the best pack🙃

I'm still betting on Latin America animal pack
As much as I want u to get the Gray Fox, if Frontier r putting Gray Fox and Coyote at the same pack.. oh lord... Frontier better pack their stuff and run as fast as they can
But who knows, I mean It's literally Frontier so there is the possibility
