That I could see happening.
Yes, our course. It's not really possible possible to make the generic species, because subspecies look different, albeit slightly. But in-game, it's implied to be the main species.
Tea, booking water, Anti-Venom
To be honest, I don't even remember why this discussion started, and I kinda don't wanna remember. My point is that saying an animal doesn't belong in a pack because it doesn't fit the theme shouldn't matter, because if it's connected, then it works. We did get Polynesian theme with animals from New Zealand and Australia, after all. I doubt that grass skirts and surfboards really match up with quokkas and Tasmanian devils
My point was made, you don’t have to repeatedly go after me.
New Zealand is in Polynesia. Australia is considered to be within Oceania.
I wasn't targeting you at all, especially as you kept quoting me and stating how I wasn't right, but whatever
And again, you're completely missing my point, but forget this. I won't win
Because you kept saying incorrect things. At least use logic when you come after people.
?
Really, now that, for a fact, is not true.
Can we drop the whole "you're wrong I'm right" argument?
I'm already over it, you're just making it worse
Aye, drop it then.
why are you discussing about endemism in the pack? we get the cassowary in the australia pack despite 80% of it ranges is in New guinea, and the red eyed tree frog in the SA pack even with 99% of it range being in CA, endemism was never a factor in frontier decision making.
Or the Eurasian lynx. It's very name shows that it's not solely European
Just my own opinion here, but i don't see the issue if of an animal being included if a themed pack if part of its natural range (or whatever the theme is) fits the pack in part. Like the Wolverine, sure, it probably most associated with Tundra, but it does also range into taiga. Saiga Antelope, probably mostly known as an Asian animal but also exists in Europe. The Coati is probably more well known as a South or Central American animal, but it does range into North America as well so it would be appropriate in my opinion for any of that.
Sure the Cougar is probably more associated with North America, but it does naturally extend into South America. Moose would have been appropriate for both Europe or North America.

So animals with multiple biomes/regions can fit into packs singling out a single biome/region? Thought we already knew this from packs like Grasslands. Why is there an argument about this? 
I remember people who were defending incredibly niche island pack rosters would resort to the same thing. It won't and never will be a deciding factor for any dlc roster.
Australia is often considered a continent of which Papua New Guinea is a part of (like Greenland for the North America or Sri Lanka for Asia).
Red-eyed tree frog is an exception agreed, although the game does lump Central America and South America together
I already pointed out your flaw here.
Evidently your point is not a hot take, so why are you posting in the hot take thread

Oh this have a name, it's called oceania, which isn't the same thing as australia.
Also can we just move on? It's very clear that not even you actually believe on this, given that you didn't even tried to explain the frog.
Yep saw it, very nice roster!
So if I can attempt to get us back to Hot takes,
- This pack would be better without a bird. There are so many mammals that are defined by mountains and only 2 that can be used for mountains (pheasant and monal). I get that they would be easy to make, but I just think another mammal clone would be better.
- They’re not saving the Wolverine for later. Don’t know if this is that hot of a take, but I really don’t think the Wolverine is being saved past this winter. We don’t know how long DLCs are gonna last, if we don’t make it to Fall 2024 where we could get a temperate pack then we don’t get the Wolverine. I get that they could use the tree roo this winter but I just don’t see it.
- No WTE animal is a good thing. There are so many regular exhibit animals that would work better than a WTE animal. I mean unless we get a bald eagle in a non walkthrough exhibit but the chances of that are a million to one.
