I have been spending some time coming up with an idea for a future DLC, and quickly settled on the idea of one based on the Mediterranean Basin. I chose this partly because it encompasses parts of three continents (Europe, Africa and Asia), partly because of its importance as a biodiversity hotspot (around 60% of the plants and 1/3 of the native animals occur nowhere else) and also because it is a region whose wildlife receives comparatively little attention.
The first (and main) DLC pack for this region contains four habitat animals, fifteen new plants, a building set and a new career mode scenario. A second pack would contain eight exhibit animals and another eight plants.
Of the four habitat animals, I made sure to select one animal each from Africa, Asia and Europe to ensure all the continents were represented. The fourth occurs on two continents. I also chose one species that would be very easy to make (being little more than a reskin of a current species), another is similar to an existing species but would need new animations and the other two are completely novel models.
