Planet Zoo: Arid Animal Pack Releasing 20 June 🐪

To be honest, before the reveal of the pack theme, I was "hmmmm, I'm doubtful about the possibility of having the Porcupine in Planet Zoo in the future, cause I can't see how to make their frills in a credible way".
But Frontier has said :

"Hold my beer".

And wow.
It's been that way through the game's entire life though. Suspecting that some animal or another might not get made because of limitations or design. Only to have them show up. I'm done assuming that they can't make such and such mammal because they are happily proving me wrong. Still, I always imagined and I still imagine, the porcupine had to have been crazily time consuming to do. Bonus that it looks so amazing, right up there with the Asian Small Clawed Otter and Red River Hog, but then you add the extra complexities. Yeah, this is definitely the high point.
 
I'd like it when you post it! I'm sure it will be magnificent
it gonna be the most fancy habitat! don't worry when I will start the process I will show you~! the thing is I'm SO scared of thinking on habitat for them because it makes me very emotional and also it just scary to think that is the first time you building for your fav animal in the world but I will do my best to get through this and make the PERFECT porcupine habitat!

We finished our mission with the Arid Animal Pack! 🏜️

- time just fly, this mission been SO fun and I enjoyed in every minute! let's be ready to the 20th in june for the launch for the Arid Animal Pack & Update 1.14!
 
Well, Frontier's designers aren't really good to make felines like they are to make reptiles and ungulates
Don't forget that Reptiles began quite meh too. Sad base game Snakes, the Tailless and Thickset Female Saltie, oversaturation for most Exhibit Reptiles, High-Walking adult Gharials, etc. They got better over time, but so do other Categories. My biggest problem with it is Old Models are not being revisited and the difference gets bigger everyday.

(by sad snakes I don't mean Sad Expressions like the Leopard, but sad in terms of Quality)

Honestly, my biggest concern is the devs beginning to rely too much on modders to fix the model problems for them. I don't want to use mods for this game.
 
What are we thinking for inter-species, biomes, social requirements for each animal?

I think:

Porcupine: 1-10, desert, grassland, tropical, temperate, inter species with meerkat, aardvark

Sand Cat: 1-2, desert, no inter species

Black Rhino: 1-2 desert, grassland, inter species with some savannah animals but not all, maybe Gemsbok?

Dromedary: 3-20, desert, inter species with scimitar horned oryx, addax, Dama gazelle

Addax: 3-10 desert, grassland, inter species with addax, dromedary, scimitar horned oryx, Dama gazelle, ostrich, giraffe.

Dama Gazelle: 3-20, desert, grassland, interspecies with addax, dromedary, Scimitar horned oryx, ostrich, giraffe, zebra

Somali Wild ass: 3-8, desert, grassland, interspecies with ostrich and giraffe?

What do you guys think?

I hope it get enrichment bonus with most of the savannah animals because in zoos it is common to see them with all of them, including zebras. Also I hope all the ungulates get interspecies bonus with the African buffalo because Is the animal with most especies bonus of the game xd
