Peru Hunting Reserve

[analog heath]

I think another South American reserve would be great as we currently only have one. I think Peru would be a great choice for this. This map would have three main habitats/regions; farmland, mountains, and jungle. The mountains would be the Andes mountains, so very rocky and steep in some areas, and contain most of the bigger game. There would be small pools and thin creek running down the mountains. There could also be some Inca ruins in the mountains, reminiscent of Machu Picchu. The jungle region would be thick and dense, with a river and small ponds throughout, as well as a more open swampy area. Most of the smaller game lives here. The farmlands would be the smallest area, mostly open fields and ancient Inca farming terraces. Most of the bird hunting and a couple introduced species would live here.

[dusk shoal]

Wow did you put a lot of thought into this

[gray berry]

Nice job @analog heath

Why don't you add the part below the OP into the actual OP

[analog heath]

There's a character limit

[gray berry]

Oh ok

[tame bison]

There are now 2 South American Reserve Suggestions, and this one covers a variety of jungle species and the South American White-tailed Deer, I like it

[analog heath]

Thanks! I saw your waterfowl reserve suggestion and I liked it, so I wanted to try and make a South America map with more non-bird species

[tame bison]

Fair enough, when I was first putting together that idea I had originally considered Peru due to the number of unique waterfowl species it has before going with Argentina in the end

[analog heath]

I tried not include too much waterfowl as to not copy your idea too much. There's still a couple birds I'm considering adding, but I don't want to crowd the map too much

[tame bison]

Peru has enough unique waterfowl that even if you went with a waterfowl heavy reserve you would not have been copying my idea, after all you got sheep, white-tail deer, ocelots and agoutis while mine has parakeet, a type of caiman, puma, axis deer and blackbuck. Even the environment is different enough to stand out

I also just noticed you are having the blowgun as one of the weapons for the reserve, guess we can all channel our inner Tim Wells on this reserve and slock a goose out of the air

[analog heath]

I might look into adding a couple ducks then

[tame bison]

https://www.getducks.com/hunts/peru-duck-hunting/

[analog heath]

Ooo ok I'm thinking of adding puna teal up in the mountains, and giant coot to the swamps in the jungle. I'm also considering adding a species of tinamou in the mountains, and maybe replacing whitewing dove with Inca and West Peruvian dove? What does anybody think?

[tame bison]

Both the Puna Teal and Giant Coot are found in the mountains, but I like where you are going with it. There is Speckled Chachalaca in the jungles and the Spectacled Caiman is a very common species in South America if you want more jungle species. In the end its up to you weather or not it goes on the list

[analog heath]

My bad about the giant coot 😅 and the chachalaca and caiman are good ideas. I'll add them with weights and fur types when I get the chance

[analog heath]

Alright added a bunch of things. Species list is a little long now but that's okay.

All of them probably won't be able to go into the map but this is only an idea

[analog heath]

Multi-horned sheep, or Jacob's sheep, can grow up to six horns, which would make for some really cool trophies

Brocket deer, both red and brown, have very small, spike antlers, but older males can get a small fork in them, which is what the diamonds should look like

[gritty vessel]

There’s some fantastic variety on the horn structure of the Jacob’s Sheep. The TruRACS variations would be really fun to see

[analog heath]

This is exactly what I was thinking, I'd love to mount a sheep with 6 crazy horns like that

[analog heath]

Andean/feral sheep

[gritty vessel]

Tbh I haven’t seen any pictures with them having 6 horns, so maybe the 6 horned ones could be a potential GO concept? 👀

[analog heath]

That would be cool. I couldn't find any pictures of six-horned ones but everything I've read says it's possible 🤷 maybe since they wouldn't get GOs for while (if they were added), only the bigger diamonds could have six horns, similar to the big rack red deer and whitetail.

[glossy vale]

I want big sheeps

[analog heath]

Same bro

[gritty vessel]

Would be cool if 2-horn, 4-horn and 6-horn could all make diamond

[analog heath]

That would be pretty cool actually, give a ton of variety to the diamonds. Comparing one with two huge horns and one with six medium sized horns or something like that would be awesome

[sonic geyser]

There's six horn?

[gritty vessel]

Supposedly

[sonic geyser]

Wow. Okay. How about a spectated bear? Is that a huntable animal?

[tame bison]

No

[sonic geyser]

Okay

[analog heath]

Yeah I looked at those but they're very endangered so it's a no go

[analog heath]

Decided to put some more pictures of species in

[analog heath]

More animals+some rare variations

[hollow root]

That is a Common Vizcacha, not a mountain one 🤔

[analog heath]

Mountain viscacha can be albino too, just an example of what it could look like

[sonic geyser]

Two things. What is the deer species right here? The last photo. And what bird has the weird pink flesh thing on its beak?

[tame bison]

The Bird is a Spix’s Guan, the piebald deer I’m guessing is either one of the 2 Brocket Deer species on the list (Red or Brown, not sure) or a South American White-tail (they are kind of small)

[analog heath]

Red brocket deer

[tame bison]

So the piebald deer is a Red Brocket, good to know

[raw leaf]

I love this idea, I really think that a second South American map has a lot of potential. I really love some of these species, particularly the Ocelot, Capybara and Spectacled Caiman, and I think having the map split between mountains, jungles and farmlands is an excellent way to give some variety to this map. I'd definitely be pretty excited to see a map like this added to the game.

[raw leaf]

However, that being said, one species I'd like to see on this map is the Puma. They'd probably live in both the mountains and the jungle on this map.

[analog heath]

Thanks for your feedback! I really appreciate it. And yeah I was definitely considering the puma, but I wanted to stick to new species as much as possible, but another bigger game animal would be good. I'll add them to the list as a possibility

Also moved Andean goose to mountains and farmland as they're in the mountains too

[raw leaf]

I think that would be a good idea, especially since you can't really do any other large land predator on a Peruvian map. The Spectacled Bear is probably too endangered to include, and Jaguars can't be hunted for sport in Peru. What you're left with then is the Puma, which would be a very ideal species to include because it's already in the game and it's technically only on one map (two if you consider the Mountain Lions on SRP to be the same thing, since they're different in name only).

[analog heath]

You're right, I was originally thinking no, partially because I don't want them spooking off my animals 😅 but they are staple of the area. Plus, they could totally do some cool story stuff with them, as pumas have a massive amount of symbolism to the Inca who lived in the area

[sonic geyser]

Okay thank you.

[analog heath]

More rares

Possible leucistic variations for mourning dove

R.I.P Peru reserve, March 24, 2023

[sonic geyser]

Wow.

[glossy vale]

😔

[sonic geyser]

Well. Now it has 4 messages. So it won't be dead now

Did you ever decide what weapons for this map?

[analog heath]

I decided on a blowgun, class 1-3 in the OP

[sonic geyser]

Oh okay. on one map they put in the 350 legend as well.

[analog heath]

What classes would that be?

[sonic geyser]

2-7

[analog heath]

Oh that could be a good idea, especially cuz there's not too many big animals on this map

[brittle ibex]

This…is one of the best map ideas I’ve ever seen

[analog heath]

Thank you!

[analog heath]

I wish I had more to say about this map but I've kinda mentioned everything I can think of... All I really have to say is we only have one South American reserve in game, and it doesn't have that many native species. We need more South American animals!

[brittle ibex]

They could definitely also add mourning doves to other maps like Mississippi,Rancho,and more

[analog heath]

Yeah for sure

[analog heath]

Thanks! Honestly I just want another South American map with native species, doesn't have to be mine

[tame bison]

The only other one is my waterfowl focused reserve in Argentina, and while I’m not sure it is likely it would be cool if both were added

[analog heath]

Yeah definitely

[analog heath]

Came up with some multimounts that could come with this reserve

Peace Was Never an Option - 1 male ocelot, 1 male of each dove species

Culpeo Culprit - 1 male puma, 1 male viscacha, 1 male culpeo

Battering Rams - 1 male feral sheep, 1 male multi-horned ram

Huddle Brocket - 3 male brocket deer, either species

Capybara Companion - 1 male capybara, 1 male spectacled caiman

Four Teal Types - 1 male of each teal species

[tame bison]

Peace Was Never An Option: I like that one

[analog heath]

Thanks! I'm not very good at coming up with ideas like this 😅 but I thought that one was pretty good

[tranquil mist]

Looks like a great reserve. If you had to narrow the list I could do without the collared peccery personally.

[analog heath]

I mean there's 30 species on the list so not all will be able to added, they were more just examples of what could be on a Peru map. Although I do agree, I'd much rather have a new species than peccary

[brittle ibex]

I’d love to see doves introduced in this map.

[analog heath]

Dove hunting is a big thing in Peru so if this map was added, doves would be necessary. They'd be so fun to hunt

[brittle ibex]

I’d hope this would encourage them to work on atleast one dove for cuatro as Spain is pretty much known for its doves and red deer,It would be great to see EW put some new doves and partridges on maps that were made before they really started making birds.

[analog heath]

Yeah absolutely, doves could add so much to existing maps

[tame bison]

Dove and Pigeon Species for other reserves
• Mourning Dove: Rancho, Mississippi
• Wood Pigeon: Cuatro, maybe Hirschfelden
• Eared Dove: Parque
• Cape Turtle Dove: Vurhonga

[brittle ibex]

I’d love to shoot some Eared dove.

[tame bison]

This Reserve plus https://discord.com/channels/393040947006406657/1070132029905178645 could easily net 5 species of pigeons and doves in total

[analog heath]

That would be awesome, South America feels ignored as a potential hunting location compared to other areas, but offers some really unique experiences that could add a lot to the game

[tame bison]

Time to dredge this old thread up again

If we could get more then one South American Reserve, having one set in Peru would be good since it offers a mix of high-altitude mountain hunting and rainforest hunting

[analog heath]

I totally forgot I made this lmao. I actually took another trip to Peru this summer and saw a few of the animals on this list. I'm still holding out hope we get a new South America map within the next year or so, it would be amazing.

[sinful folio]

Don’t forget Jaguar! They’re very highly requested and it wouldn’t be a Tropical South America map without Jaguars! Also before anyone Asks we currently have Bengal Tigers, Snow Leopards And Woodland Caribou in the game so Jaguars aren’t as outside the realm of possibility now as they probably were back then

[static jolt]

I think the spectacled bear can be considered now since we’ve heard EW’s stance on endangered species

[analog heath]

Yeah for sure, a low population of them would be really good for this map.

Jaguar could definitely work too. Also we hit 100!

[static jolt]

Jaguar and Puma for that matter

[sinful folio]

Yeah let’s add them Jaguars to the list

[analog heath]

Added them and spectacled bears too
