Monkey Pack

[aubreykitsune]

So, I decided to take a look at the Meta Wishlist to see what monkeys we could get, and these would be the species we might hypothetically get in a monkey scenery pack:

• Black Howler Monkey
• Hamadryas Baboon
• Gelada Baboon
• Mantled Guereza
• Golden Lion Tamarin (walkthrough)

Personally I'd replace the Gelada with the Geoffroy’s Spider Monkey (next most popular species) for variety, and it would be perfect! All species would be within the top 37 slots of the wishlist too. My reasoning for sticking to specifically monkeys is that I think our lack of primates is specific to them. We have more than enough apes, and 3 lemurs is fine by me, but we have hardly any monkeys compared to the variety that tends to be seen in actual zoos.

The building theme could be a Treetop theme based around forming tree house structures around large trees, sort of like the redwoods in Ark. It could come with a healthy variety of new climbables as well. All of the elements I've mentioned would come together to form the best possible pack for me at this point in the game's lifespan.

There's been a few threads on this recently. Personally I'd hope for an animal pack for any themes centred around a single type of animal. In this case, I agree with the idea of switching the baboon for the spider monkey, definitely, but if we're getting tamarins in the WE then I'd rather get five species at once. My five picks are: Golden lion, cotton-top, emperor, Goeldi's monkey, and common marmoset. All of these tend to be the more common in captivity.
