Adds the Sitatunga, an amphibious antelope from African wetlands, as a new species. A niche animal addition with solid community support (257 endorsements). For players seeking new wildlife variety.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 257 endorsements and nearly 6k downloads.
- Fills a niche for wetland antelope lovers—something you don't see every day.
- Last updated in 2023, so it's relatively recent and likely maintained.
⚠️ Cons
- No details on how the Sitatunga behaves or integrates—could be a simple reskin or full-fledged species.
- Potential compatibility issues with other animal mods that alter spawns or habitats.
- Small scope: only adds one species, so if you want a variety pack, this isn't it.
For Planet Zoo players who want to expand their African section with a unique amphibious antelope. If you're a completionist collecting every species, this is a must-have. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay overhauls—this is purely an animal addition.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Place the mod files in the correct folder (likely 'ovldata' or 'content') to ensure the game recognizes it.
- Check if the mod requires the latest game patch (1.14) to avoid crashes.
- If you use other animal mods, test in a sandbox zoo first to see if the Sitatunga appears correctly.
