Interesting post on Reddit.....

Besides when you think about it their dlc seems to have regions being the way it will be presented. So the deluxe extra doesn’t really make sense.

Deluxe Edition Animals is pre-order bonus content of deluxe edition of the game. Only customers who pre-ordered deluxe version own this DLC.
Deluxe Edition Extras is the same exact content although it is available for purchase as separate entry (currently for 11.99€). It is intended for customers who bought regular version of the game and want to own deluxe edition content. It is basically an upgrade from regular version to deluxe version of the base game.

I paid for the Deluxe version yet both appear. Odd.

I don't think anyone is suggesting that the Deluxe Extra is a new DLC (I certainly am not). As I said earlier, it just strikes me as weird that before it only had the whole Deluxe pack as a single DLC and now it's divided into two.

I guess Deluxe edition content wasn't exclusive to pre-orders after all

I'm going to be so disappointed if the new DLC doesn't contain exhibits that contain tropical fish or butterflys

Prepare to be disappointed.

The odds of them adding tropical fish this early into the game are slim to none. Butterflies aren't exhibit animals, as that would be counterintuitive to conservation goals.

I was probably being a bit dramatic I won't be disappointed at all, but I would like to see that stuff someday. I would be more disappointed if more construction pieces aren't added as I think I enjoy building more than animal keeping.

I meant, but didn't fully explain that by exhibits I meant exhibit size.

I don't know if adding butterflies at all is really feasible to do realistically. Fish, maybe, eventually, at some stage, but butterflies are a little complicated. Your traditional "butterfly garden" tends to be a big open-air walkthrough habitat showcasing a number of different species with only the caterpillars and cocoons being showcased in what might be considered an exhibit.

Personally I'm an advocate for the idea of making butterflies a special effect, like waterfalls, fountains, and petals. That way you can put them around your zoo for a nice decorative boost but they aren't actually an animal you need to take care of.

This - but like that, I would really love it!

Butterflies because of flight? Hmm never thought about the early stages of butterflies.

I've been working on a model of a bee, so I guess I'll try a butterfly next

Butterflies as a scenery, like the special effects in Planco that had butterflies & bees, would be fine for me.
If it was only cosmetical, I wouldn't mind. But then I need Vista Points to lure the people to specifica areas of the Zoo.

Planet Coaster had Butterflys and Bees? Why didn't they implement them in Planet Zoo? I would love to create a Flower Garden with Bees and the Bee-Education-Board

Really?
I would understand if everyone could buy the Animals but not the other Stuff. This seems really unfair

It wasn't any different, but it was Pre-Order.

As the beagler5 said, Extras is the same exact content, but an upgrade of the regular game.
Same thing, same content, different name to denote before and after launch purchases.
