Subspecies for current Species in COTW

[supple lagoon]

I was just thinking that people are very sick of the same animals such as Whitetail Deer, Red Deer, Moose etc but I'm here to talk about subspecies. Subspecies are animals of different locations and with differences such as size, weight, fur etc and we have quite a few animals that are all the same and it is completely boring there are literally not differences between animals and it is disappointing. I know the devs have to work on DLCs & Maps but seeing this would help to just make the game a little bit or even quite abit better so this is what I suggest.

1. When you spot a animal I would like for it to say something like for example Layton Lakes ( Columbian Whitetail Deer or
   Northwestern Whitetail Deer ).

2. I would like to see actual differences in terms of models, antlers, sizes, weights, fur etc.

3. Species List of Animals that can be sorted into subspecies to start off with.

Whitetail Deer

● Columbian Whitetail Deer or Northwestern Whitetail ( Layton Lakes )
● Southeastern Whitetail Deer ( Mississippi Acres )
● Northeastern Whitetail Deer ( New England Mountains )
● Coues Whitetail Deer ( Rancho Del Arroyo )
● Northeastern Whitetail Deer ( Revontuli Coast )

Moose

● Shiras Moose ( Layton Lakes )
● Alaska-Yukon Moose ( Yukon Valley )
● Eastern Moose ( New England Mountains )
● Eurasian Moose ( Revontuli Coast )
● Eurasian Moose ( Med-Ved Taiga National Park )

Red Deer

● Central European Red Deer ( Hirschfelden )
● Spanish or Iberian Red Deer ( Cuatros Colinas )
● ???? ( Parque Fernado )
● New Zealand Red Deer or Scottish Red Deer or Swedish Red Deer ( Te Awaroa National Park )
● Swedish Red Deer or Australian Red Deer ( Emerald Coast )

This is just the three species that I think need this the most currently

I especially want this with red deer because new zealand red deer are so different from european red deer when it comes to rack size

[supple lagoon]

Yes I do agree but I'm not sure if I would want the Red Deer that is found on Private Land or on Public land because they have completely different racks as they're usually bred on farms or just have extremely high genetics compared to NZ Wild Red Deer

[fathom garnet]

I honestly reall want a revamp of red deer racks, the big level 7 racks should be diamond, the 8 and 9 racks are way too big and unrealistic, the big 7 racks are your typical massive new zealand red deer, the big 6 racks are about the biggest you'd find in europe, they really need a revamp and honeslty I think they should go level 1-5 maybe because 9 is not neccessary

[supple lagoon]

I do agree Red Deer are my favourite deer species and they deserve all the love in the world

[fathom garnet]

5 star red deer from WOTH looks like a big level 6 from COTW but it's literally the perfect representation of a trophy stag

[supple lagoon]

Yeah too bad they decided to add 25pt Red stags to the NZ map unfortunately

[fleet needle]

You could even go deeper and make great ones different in each region to and create it based off a real life crazy animal found there

[supple lagoon]

I was thinking of that I just don't know how much work it would be to 4 different types of GO'S for a subspecies

[supple lagoon]

Also I was thinking since the GO moose are based off of trees or they're fabled names for example fabled oak it would be cool if they did fabled names based off of the native tree species or plant species there

[finite fjord]

I want moose subspecies so bad

[supple lagoon]

Same

They're a extremely cool species with subspecies and they definitely deserve better than to have the same models as every other moose

[finite fjord]

The difference between shiras and Yukon moose irl is a big difference so it’s needed

[supple lagoon]

@finite fjord found this and it's super interesting it'd be cool if we had a map in every location so we could essentially tick off every single species/subspecies in North America

[finite fjord]

Would be interesting but people would complain a lot

[supple lagoon]

There is always going to be haters

[finite fjord]

True

[vast belfry]

This could be done for Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (SRP) and Desert bighorn sheep (Rancho).

[fathom garnet]

Would love to have subspecies! Especially for Moose and Bighorn

Its likely the Red Stags in Argentina are also Central European Reds, but that is a hard one to figure out for myself

[frozen ember]

Revontuli moose should be European Elk, and Medved moose should be Kamchatka Moose.

Don't forget Bighorn and Mule Deer subspecies, too.

[raw lodge]

"Kamchatka Moose" are technically Chukota Moose that live on the Kamchatka Peninsula, a more suitable Asiatic Subspecies would be the Yakutian Moose (Sometimes known as the Mid-Siberian and Lena Moose) since they range throughout the Siberian Interior

[sacred cradle]

Small changes to each model basically encapsulates a whole other animal inside. Diversity and immersion. I like it.
