Phobia image replacement
Not everyone wants a close look at a Mexican Redknee or a snake. Frontier lists phobia image replacement among Planet Zoo 2's accessibility options, next to UI scaling, a colour vision deficiency mode, separate audio sliders and font scaling.
Deluxe Edition exhibit animals
The Axolotl and Blue and Gold Fusilier are exhibit animals that only come with the Deluxe Edition. See the Planet Zoo 2 Deluxe Edition page for what else it includes.
Biomes of the exhibit animals
Exhibit animals come from all twelve biomes, from Desert snakes to Rainforest frogs. The biomes page lists every animal of each biome, so you can see which exhibit animals share a landscape with the habitat animals around them.
