Take a stroll through the woods today with the 'Planet Zoo: Woodlands Animal Pack'. The seasonal forests of the world change throughout the seasons, from the boreal forests of the Northern hemisphere, to the temperate rainforests of North America, to the fairytale-esque forests of Europe, to the open dry woodlands of India, the Australian bushlands, and the ancient forests of New Zealand; eight new animals, several new plants and a new campaign scenario.

Campaign Scenario:
Dominic Myers has found an abandoned logging mill in Alberta, Canada, and wants to transform it into a zoo in time for an autumn festival
The Woodland Animal Pack's primary colour will be brown, as an association with autumn and the leaves turning brown, as is customary in seasonal forests. The trailer will show different animals in different seasons:
In Spring:
-A Numbat emerges from a log and begins interacting with a termite mound
-A Superb Lyrebird male jumps onto a rock and begins to perform
Summer:
-Indian Gaur in a woodland clearing clash horns and a mother and calf feed on bushes
-A Sri Lankan Leopard sleeps in the cool shade of a tree before jumping down and vanishing into the undergrowth
Autumn:
-Elk bugle before two stags rut; a doe scratches her back against a tree and a male rubs its antlers against another tree
-American Black Bear mother and her cubs; one of the cubs is up a tree, two other cubs are play-fighting and the mother is on her hinds legs, using a tree as a scratching post
Winter:
-Guests look into a terrarium containing Giant Wetas
-In a walkthrough exhibit, a Eurasian Red Squirrel pops its head out of a tree hollow, and several squirrels run across the wires over the guests heads
