Musk Ox {Headliner}
Pacific Walrus/Southern Elephant Seal/Leopard Seal
King Eider
Atlantic Puffin/Tufted Puffin
Arctic Hare/Snowshoe Hare
Sea Otter
Canada goose/Stoat
Lemmings [E]

expansion pack would never even happen at the first part, they cant even get one bird in lmao, i can say bald eagle will never join the game either
This looks close to mine I'm really good with ungulates overall, but the Markhor, Muskox, and Blackbuck would still be welcome for sure. I'd be alright with the Elk or Peres David Deer, but I'm also not really yearning for them to be in the game.
ETA: Eithr the Pudu or Marsh Deer would also be an okay addition, being a South American Deer.
Another ETA - I still want a second giraffe lol.

based on my own findings here is the top picks for a keepers collection animal pack
These are the top 8 animals from my list of forum members zoo sightings and honestly a pack with 2 birds a reptile 3 ungulates a rodent and a monkey seems fairly balanced to me considering it covers 4 continents focusing on south america and provides at least 2 new styles of exhibit a large desert reptile and a parrot.
- patagonian mara
- common eland / any eland
- african spurred tortoise
- black swan
- blackbuck
- blue and gold macaw
- brazilian tapir
- cotton top tamarin

Then your post doesn't make any sense
Also we have been getting a minimum of 1 bird each DLC for the last 3 now (Oceania, Eurasia & Barnyard). With one of them even having two birds.
Is time for 3 birds in a DLC
It really is! Come through secretary bird, pelican, rhea DLC
South America pack with American flamingo, Chilean flamingo and Humboldt penguinIs time for 3 birds in a DLC
not quite they share a family with lorises but are not lorises. Also slow lorises doesnt even include all lorises only 2 of the 3 genus in the loris subfamily.
Being hopefull and saying we get 2 more packs, 1 SA animal pack and 1 Grabbag animal pack and both packs feature 2 birds, which ones would you guys choose to be the games last 4 birds?
Whistling/Muscovy duck, brown pelican, golden pheasant, helmeted guinea fowl.
Not that thats ever gonna happen
4 is tough, there are so many good candidates.
I think a pelican and duck are essential so I’d go with the mandarin duck because it’s common and pretty as well as the brown pelican, not my first choice of pelican but it fits into South America.
The other 2 are tough for South America it’s between the Rhea and Spoonbill, I think I’d choose the Rhea because Patagonia needs the love.
Finally I want either a tropical bird, between the Spoonbill and Crowned Pigeon or a grasslands bird like the Crane, I think ultimately I’d choose the Pigeon but it’s tough.
So my choices are:
1. Brown Pelican and Greater Rhea
2. Mandarin Duck and Crowned Pigeon
For me, I change some of the animals around a bit. But here is my 4 as of right now.
- White faced whistling duck. I’m not even gonna say why. You all know why.
- Grey Crowned Crane. I think this is the next “African mixed habitat bird” I want, and it also has the benefit of working in a tropical aviary.
- Brown Pelican. I want to give a lot of focus on the Americas with these last birds, considering we don’t have any. It’s a colorful animal, and can get interspecies bonuses with the California sea lion and our next bird…..
- Roseate Spoonbill. The final Americas bird, and probably one of the more versatile birds in the game. It works in a whole bunch of places.
Also, as much as it hurts me to say, the fulvous whistling duck may be a better option due to it having an even farther range than the WFWD. The main reason I like the WFWD is that it’s so darn cute! But I mean the FWD even makes it to India, and the Caribbean. Kind of hard to beat. Whistling ducks are really op options for animals.
Likewise, I really, really, really want a sea bird. Puffins also have a massive range.
So here would be my “updated” bird list, going for birds with some of the largest ranges to cover the highest amount of continents and countries. Likewise, I’m trying to pick animals that have “relatively empty niches” in game.
- Atlantic Puffin. Canada, United States, and then pretty much most of Europe. Useful for NA players and European Players.
- Admittedly not as cute, but the fulvous whistling duck. Caribbean, tip of Florida, Central America, South America, Africa, Madagascar, and India! What a range! Also while not as cute, they are still pretty darn cute.
- Great white pelican, wouldn’t take much to twist my arm for the Dalmatian pelican. Though they share similar ranges of Europe, Africa, and into Asia.
- Finally, the only one who I would keep the same is the roseate spoonbill. Most of South America, the Caribbean, and into North America.
- Not flamingo wading bird, and also a bird for the Caribbean and tropical South America. Roseate spoonbill covers this.
- Arctic bird and non-penguin sea bird, the puffins got this.
- Pelican, guess who got this covered?
- Another waterfowl, and one that covers a massive amount of countries, also works in a tropical house. The fulvous whistling duck. (Still not as cute plumage as my baby, but I can’t deny that range is beautiful!)
I mean if you do american flamingo in the context of rhea and rockhopper (both clones as well) i wouldn't be that mad.South America pack with American flamingo, Chilean flamingo and Humboldt penguin
We do need a pelican though.
LATAM pack:
- Greater rhea
- White face whistling duck OR Roseatte spoonbill OR Scarlet ibis (in short a colorful american waterfowl)
Finale pack:
- Great White pelican
- Grey crowned crane
