message: I see that some people are putting animals to the list that haven't been confirmed by Microsoft or Blue Fang at the moment, and I just want to notify this: currently we know of three animals which are the Mammoth, the Wooly Rhino, and the Smilodon. If you see other animals confirmed, cite your sources (provide a link proving the animal has been confirmed) of the information and we'll be fine with it. Thank you.

thread_title:  Semi-Protection 

message: I don't know about the rest of you...but I am getting tired of all this constant editing, and reverting and so forth.  This article has reached well over 500 edits, and the stupid game has not even been released yet.  For that matter, an official sneak peak has not yet been released by Microsoft, so how can all these "facts" be proven or disproven?
This is getting close to edit warring, and before an admin decides to completely lock the article, we should start choosing our edits wisely.

thread_title:  Editing abuse 

message: I just wanted to know, some have put this month as a release for the expansion and others have put it between May-August (as currently put). Can anyone tell me why so many are pinpointing the release date so close when no actual information has even been given? I haven't seen any official BF info yet, so I'm going to put TBA 2007 until release info is confirmed. Discusion welcome on the topic (PS: Off-topic, but I also registered at ZA last week so I could recieve access to the site and discuss stuff there; I used to lurk there occasionally for a few years but since now it's members-only, I just registered so feel free to contact me there).

message: How can you tell it is a Coelodonta?
*It's just speculated to be Coelodonta currently, so we aren't sure yet about that one so it could be another extinct rhino species, like a Elasmotherium (unlikely, since the rhino in the film snippet looks like it had two horns, but I could b mistaken). Until we actually find out, then I edited the article to say it is speculated only and not confirmed. The Helper S 22:02, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

"Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals," the biggest expansion pack to date for the hugely popular, award-winning "Zoo Tycoon 2," lets gamers bring animals that once roamed the Earth back to life. With new challenges and more than 30 new animals, players can create environments the creatures once lived in and learn about times that date back to the Ice Age. 
Features: 
Impressive never-before-seen animals. "Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals" features more than 30 new animals, ranging from the adorable dodo bird to the dangerous saber-toothed cat, and more than 10 new dinosaurs, such as the T. rex and stegosaurus, for the ultimate zoo experience. 
New gameplay. With exciting new ways to play, "Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals" challenges players to recover escaped dinosaurs, with the new first-person tranquilizer mode. Players can also search for hidden fossils around the zoo, build animal fossils and create new extinct animals in the Extinct Research Lab. 
A whole new look. Aspiring paleontologists can now customize their zoos with new maps and extinct-themed buildings such as the Extinct Research Lab, Fossil Education Center and Cave Painting Hall. Other extinct-themed objects are new foliage, glaciers, cavemen and a brachiosaurus slide for kids. 
New characters. Paleontologists are available to help gamers look for fossils, while entertainers dress in costumes, perform shows and keep guests happy. 
Interactive educational entertainment. Children and parents can broaden their knowledge of the animal kingdom to improve their zookeeping skills. The exclusive Zoopedia, with excerpts from Encarta, as first introduced in "Zoo Tycoon 2," provides interesting facts, allowing gamers to uncover each animal's specific dietary and habitat needs. 
Easy to learn and play. "Zoo Tycoon 2: Extinct Animals" seamlessly integrates with "Zoo Tycoon 2" so gamers can play immediately. An interactive tutorial teaches players how to build and manage the ultimate zoo.    Zoomanj 18:46, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
