AD animals & incorrect biomes

So, I think it's pretty clear that some of the AD animals are in the incorrect biome based on the biome map.
http://www.auroradesigns.org/Biomes/map.html


I know that these animals have this issue:

Koala- It is in temperate rainforest, but most of its range is temperate forest so that is the biome it should be in.

Platypus- It is in temperate forest, but it is semiaquatic so it should be in freshwater.

Thylacine- It is in temperate forest. Although it would have lived in temperate forests when it lived in mainland Australia, Tasmania is the only place it lived in modern times and Tasmania is almost entirely temperate rainforest.

Tasmanian pademelon- It is in temperate forest, and like the thylacine it is from Tasmania. Therefore, it should also be in temperate rainforest.

Beluga- It is in tundra, but it should logically be in polar ice.


I'm thinking about making a biome hack that will switch them to the biomes they should be in. Is there any demand for this, and are there any other animals in incorrect biomes?

Koala is listed under temperate forest.

Tasmania actually does not consist entirely out of temperate rainforest. There are 3 distinct biome-types based on location ;)

- Alpine heathlands in the center surrounded by grasslands
- Tall Eucalyptus forests, aka temperate forests, mainly in the south and west
- Temperate rainforests and moorlands, mainly to the east and north


Also, not every semi-aquatic animal should automatically be listed as freshwater ;)

IMO, Przewalski’s Wild Horse and ring-tailed lemur should have their biomes changed to cold desert and tropical dry forest respectively.
