I think at this point the only ZT animals I still badly want are;
  • Blackbuck.
  • Japanese serow.
  • Addax.
  • Barbary macaque (by sheer virtue of wanting more small monkeys in general).
  • Sea otter.
  • Rockhopper penguin.
I also want a baboon, but I have my heart set on the Hamadryas and would not consider the olive baboon a good substitute (begrudging acceptance rather than enthusiastic glee if we were to recieve it).

Also the thylacine, but that is literally the only extinct animal I want in the game because I want to save them.
 
I really miss:
American Black Bear, Unicorns, Wolverine, Dromedary Camel, Sea Otter, Markhor, Green Sea Turtle
Also pretty good:
Blackbuck, Olive Baboon (though Hamadryas would be more useful right now) Barbary Macaque, spurred tortoise, bighorn sheep, honey badger, manatee, addax, rockhopper penguin, musk ox

Other important things still missing:
bird house (WEs will likely replace), duck ponds, touch pool, mini-aquariums, petting zoo, carousels

Concerns I have:
Secretary Bird: I really loved it in ZT2. It had little lizards it could chase, a flying animation, a nest perch, and would zoom around its exhibit. I worry that it won't translate well into Planet Zoo. I don't want to be longing for the graphics of a 2004 game while playing this modern masterpiece. While a secretary bird done right would be incredible, I would greatly prefer the crowned crane if it's going to be anything close to a flamingo clone.
 
WANT BAD GAME IS NOT COMPLETE WITHOUT THEM!!!!: Markhor / Secretary Bird / Gerenuk / Ratel

STILL WANT: Blackbuck / Walrus / Elephant Seal / Manatee / Spectacled Bear / Wolverine / Gelada / Musk Ox

DON'T MIND, DON'T CARE:Olive Baboon / Black Rhinoceros / Serow / Bighorn Sheep / Dromedary / All Fishes / Sea Turtles / Octopus and stuff like that / Nile Crocodile / Rockhopper / Addax

MEH, KEEP THEM AWAY FROM MY GAME!: African Leopard / Dinosaurs and Extinct Animals ALL / American Black Bear / Fantasy Creatures / Javan Rhinoceros / Emperor Penguin (only because of King Penguin would be a copy) / All whales / Sea Otter / Crested Gibbon / Barbary Ape / Another Giraffe / Spurred Tortoise / Ethiopian Wolf
 
Yes I would like Sulcata Tortoise (african spurred) I think we need a new tortoise species and it would be a desert one.
Secretary bird I think would be good because it is a bird of prey that could be habitat! We can keep them in mesh pieces.
Andean Bear - I really enjoy these bears in Zoo Tycoon, I would like them also in Planet Zoo.
Barbary Ape - Yes please! I love more primates, yes this would be similar to Japanase Macaque, but there are still differences and it is only primate also in Europe.
Gelada - I prefer Hamadryas Baboon, but this would still be nice for a moutainous area.
Generuk - very unique antelope
Ratel - the true Queens and Kings of the Savanah.
Sea Otter - very cute, even if they are scary in the wild.
Green Sea Turtle - I prefer freshwater turtles like Pig-nosed Turtle, but at least it would be our first habitat water turtle.
Musk Ox - They are fearsome, the way they protect the calves against wolves and predators (the protective circle) is legendary.
Addax - This is still god option for antelope.
Rockhopper Penguin - Third penguin species would be nice, this one has colourful browns:)
Wolverine - yes it seems very popular around here.
Markhor - Another goat species cannot hurt can it:)
Black Rhinoceros - not very notable for me, but still people want it around here.
Walrus - same as above

Do not want: Ethiopian Wolf -sorry it is not found in captivity anywhere:-(
