Sorry to hear that :cJust lost my Bearded Dragon
If anything, the Sifaka would be a major disappointment... we keep saying there's enough or too much of this kind of animal or that, but at least most of them have the advantage of coming from different parts of the world, different biomes, strong differences in appearances, and so on... but another lemur? It's just another lemur... from the jungles of Madagascar... because they're all from the jungles of Madagascar....
I both agree and disagree, while I don't just see it as a "another lemur" due to it's unique movement and look, but I do agree that it would be a little disappointing, especially if we dont get the Black Howler Monkey or another SA Monkey.
Western and Southern Madagascar are Savanna/Dry Forest, even a speck of Desert in the south, and just so happens to be the side the Sifakas are on, though the Ring-tail lemur in reality ranges into tropic-dry and semi-arid, so yeah, the Sifaka would probably just be lumped into Tropical (Verreaux's Sifaka is the Semi-arid species)
At the end of the day, it's the highest ranked Madagascan on the metawishlist, if they specifically wanted representation from there, then it's not a huge pool of suggestions to pick from.
Aye-aye is the second ranked Madagascan, another Lemur with interesting behaviours. After that it's the Radiated Tortoise, followed by Malagasy Giant Rat near the bottom. I've mentioned Giant Coua before, but I doubt Frontier's seen it much, and beyond that it's Tenrecs, Malagasy carnivores, and proper aviary birds.

I mean while I would be very happy with Sifaka and/or Aye-aye, I do think for me New World Monkeys take precedence - for me at least Howlers, Spider-monkeys and Tamarins are just such quintessential Zoo animals - I don't think I can recall visiting a zoo which didn't have any of them, and usually multiple.
But that said, non-ape primates are, other than birds, by far the most under-repped habitat animal taxon in the game vs their diversity in zoos, and it would realistically take at minimum an entire Monkey Pack's worth to get it up to a good level.

Might be a hot take but i dont think thats the case actually.
That pack was all about the new mechanic of deep diving, all of the included animals do it and pelicans, well they dont.
So its kind of like putting an emu in an aviary pack
It is just so mind blowing that we have been crying out loud for South American monkeys for years now and Frontier interpreted it as: Ohh, they want a Sifaka!...just...why... Surely a Squirrel Monkey or Howler Monkey would be easier to animate than a Sifaka. Not that is is not a cool animal, but SA monkeys should take a priority and if Frontier has been paying attention then they know it. So it is really weird that they avoid anything South American related so much.
Squirrel monkey would also have been a perfect anniversary animal
I actually silently hoped for two anniversary animals this year but leopard is a great addition since I’ve always had problems with Amur leopard in warmer climate zoos.
What about the 200 species roster theory? Now with the African leopard we will have 188 right?
That leaves 12 species for the next pack or packs? What do you think?
I mean speaking technicalities were still at the same species number since armur and african are the same species
Not me trying to squeeze another animal out of frontier
If there is an old world and new world pack wouldn't it make sense for it to after this pack since Frontier seems to be releasing them in pairs for consoles. Of course things could change (especially if the last pack is extra big). But either way we need a pack to pair with Barnyard and if there is two packs left that would mean there is one on its own.
To be fair, the Himalayas has the most famous highlands fauna in the world. Other mountain ranges have a lot less to offer comparatively.
Do they? The Andes also have quite a lot.

hey maybe there will be 18 animals in the dlc so that we have over 200 unique speciesI mean speaking technicalities were still at the same species number since armur and african are the same species
Not me trying to squeeze another animal out of frontier
relax，maybe nothing's gonna happen today
We still have a ways to go then because of the Bengal tiger, HBB, Arctic Wolf, dingo, donkey, and Tamworth pig (the wisent too arguably).I mean speaking technicalities were still at the same species number since armur and african are the same species
