Rare Species Pack

[Brandon Gill]

This pack consist of the following rare species for Planet Zoo that would make an excellent edition
1. Japanese Serow

2. Red fanged funnel spider: Exhibit

3. Addax

4. Peruvian spider monkey

5. Ploughshare Tortoise

6. White-rumped vulture

These are some very rare species but I’m sure there’s a lot more than that.

Japanese Serow 100% i want. I bet most ppl knew about this animal from ZT1.

• Saiga antelope -- (CR)

• Shoebill -- (VU)

• Naked mole-rat -- (LC)

• Golden snub-nosed monkey -- (EN)

• Yangtze giant softshell turtle -- (CR)

[Planetwildlife]

The naked mole-rat can be the new terrarium animal if Frontier can add a terrarium animal pack containing more than eight species in one pack.

Northern Hairy Nosed Wombat - critically endangered
Saiga Antelope - critically endangered
Eastern Black Rhino - critically endangered
Sumatran Tiger - critically endangered
Tasmanian Devil - endangered
Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo - endangered
Secretary Bird - endangered
Andaman Cobra - exhibit animal - endangered. Not the go-to want for a cobra for sure, but it's one marked as endangered.

I like this line up as it gives us 3 of the 4 most wanted types of Oceania animals, the Emu would be the only one left that's high on the meta list with a variety of animals. 4 herbivores no less! The downside, nothing from South America or North America.

I like most of your choices and would nearly sign it but I personally would change the tiger for another animal. We already have two tiger subspecies which is enough in my opinion. I would instead put the Spectacled Bear on the list which also would bring a species of the American double continent. Its status ist vulnerable but the number of Spectacled bears regrettably goes still down.

This is actually kind of funny, I actually had the Spectacled Bear on it first instead of the tiger, but then I saw it was just vulnerable instead of endangered, and when I removed it I wanted a "bigger" carnivore, so the Tiger was my choice.

I'd gladly take the Spectacled Bear instead of the tiger.

I see this thread have various opinions on what ,,rare,, species is.

The Japanese Serow for example surely has nothing to do with a list of rare animals as they are (luckily) even not listed as threatened. But rare is perhaps a thing of a personal definition.

I see this thread have various opinions on what ,,rare,, species is.

"Rare" is such a vague term anyway. OP didn't say it had to mean "endangered", after all. "Rare" could also mean "rare in captivity".

In any case my top pick for a "rare" species that is both endangered and no longer in captivity would be the Sumatran rhinoceros.

Yeah i haven't posted a list here because i don't understand what the criteria is supposed to be lol most people seem to be choosing endangered animals though.

 

[Doran]

My selection (only CR species):
1. European Mink
2. Brown Spider Monkey
3. Western Woylie
4. Cotton-top Tamarin
5. Visayan Warty Pig
6. Addra Gazelle
7. Sumatran Tiger
8. Chinese Giant Salamander (E)

I think all of them would be usefull, since all of them have atleast decent captive presence.
