Zoologist

Zoologist is a Super Rare Scientist variant in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2. His appearance is the same as a regular Scientist, but with a koala hugging his backpack, a snake wrapped around his leg, and a meerkat/prairie dog on his head. He shoots spikes and uses a porcupine to attack. His weapon is an extremely short range weapon, meant for close combat. He and the Computer Scientist are the only variants unlockable in the beta.

Description
"The Zoologist and the Marine Biologist were fierce rivals growing up. After dropping out of Zomboss' Marine Biology and Fish Sticks Academy, the Zoologist turned to mind control. Now he's ready to show the Plant forces and the rest of Zomburbia... well, we're not really sure."
