Laika/Ham/Aple and other animals!

[hippomormor]

Is it just poor google-skills or can it really be true that no one ever made an add-on with animals like the first being in space; Laika?!

It would be an awesome early game science booster!

Best regards

I do remember seeing that someone made a model of a kimpanzee (a green chimp really) though.

The only life I've seen anywhere in the Kerbolar system is on Kerbin, and consists entirely of the following: Kerbals, grass, trees, and cactus. I think there's a dead Space Kraken out on a moon of one of the outer planets, but since it's DEAD I don't consider that to be evidence of life, as no one that I know of has ever seen a living one in the wild. Felt its effects, maybe, but never SEEN one...

So, no, not super surprising that no one has done such a mod, but there's always a first time for everything, you know?

Later!

That's about it, there's no basis for what creatures are "canon" beyond what we can observe.

I've considered Laika in the past, but I figured a living, breathing dog would not be well received, especially if the mod is aiming to be stockalike (And some folks have major qualms about potentially harming an animal, rightfully so).
