Will Planet Zoo 1 DLC Animals Be in Planet Zoo 2?

Quick answer: Some familiar animals may return, but Frontier has not confirmed that every Planet Zoo 1 DLC species will be included in Planet Zoo 2 or unlocked through old ownership. Only species explicitly named in Planet Zoo 2 material belong on the confirmed roster.
