I'd like to have a way to obtain an extinct critter. In the past with the larger player base, you could probably find someone who was willing to sell or trade whatever you might be looking for. Not quite the case these days. I know the AAPA *sometimes* has an extinct critter up for grabs, but it's not really a surefire way to get a hold of something in particular.
A couple methods I think may work are:
- Credit purchase
Simple enough. Perhaps the Hunters Lodge or ZI could offer the purchase of an extinct critter. ZI handles all kinds of critters on the regular, so it wouldn't be too out of place to see revived critters there. Hunters Lodge might be able to find critter remains, then have them revived for you? (I'd imagine it's best to avoid the direct sale of dead corpses)
- AAPA feature
RP thing? Write a note to the AAPA stating what you're looking for and RP out doing some volunteer work till it turns out someone donated the thing.
- Curious Collections feature
Perhaps the trader would be able to offer up extinct and revived critters. Who knows where any of the other things for offer comes from anyway..
No matter the method, I'm certain it won't be utilized too often. But at least it would be nice to have the option.

This is a good point and idea to have available somewhere. Especially since we almost all have (and still plan to have) new characters who couldn’t have possibly been around to adopt such creatures. -shrug-

I could see Hunters Lodge or ZI working well for that, APAA and Curious Collections seem more 'random' in what they offer, so I don't feel like it 'fits' to be able to request a specific pet there.
What about the Healer's Temple? They already provide a service to revive a pet if you have the corpse, maybe for an increased cost users could buy a revived pet without having to bring the body themselves? A regular revival cost 75 credits, so maybe 100, or 125 to buy a pet that the user doesn't already own?
No matter how it's done though, I'd love to see a way to get extinct pets again.

Yea! I'm totally for making things more attainable.
If we need a lore reason why we can buy 'dead' pets, maybe someone (an NPC or whatever) was able to get the info on how to make more via the labs or something!

Jurassic Park it up, in my opinion. NPC manages to take DNA from the dead pets(like bones), piece it together with other DNA strands and revive them, one at a time? Our Labs already does that sort of thing.

I like the thought of Healer's Temple. I'll figure out a way to implement it tonight or tomorrow.
