Wisents

Postby tiddy ogg » Sun Jul 27, 2008 10:56 am

(This isn't important enough to go into support forum, and it might be a FOIG thing, but...)

My char has just discovered these animals. What are they? The wiki says nothing.
All I have discoverd so far is that they're pretty tough.

A lot of new animals (created in the last year or so) are not in the wiki. A wisent is a sturdy type of cattle with a thick hide, a bit like a bison. It lives on the tundra.

They live in the forests of north-east Poland, and are doing quite well for a species that "is no more" :wink:

For a second I thought one of the programmers has been reading too much Lord of the Rings.

Oops, my bad...sorry... :oops:

EDIT: I checked wikipedia and it seems that the wisent actually were "no more" in the wild. Now, they do exist but only in zoos, national parks etc etc...

That does raise the question, though, of what extinct animals may show up in cantr...


4132-5:01: You are killed by a tyrannosaurus rex.

:shock:

Well, there are wolly mammoths I believe.
When you hope for something, you often believe in something. When you believe in something, you often have pride in it. Being proud often leads to a hating of some group.
As you can see, the Jedi are hypocrites.

You say: Opps...awww...I feel bad now! *Cries*

Heh, that's be quite awesome.
I'd like to see that when you kill the last of a kind on a location it says
You expertly kill the last do-do bird on this location using a crossbow.

And when you actually kill the very last animal of its kind it says so and automatically pops up a memorial stone saying who's responsible. :lol:
