2025 Essential Habitat Animals Meta-Wishlist

Hi, I have two questions.
First question, I created a new wishlist and added it here, but the old one is still showing. Is there a way to delete the old wishlist?
Second, can I add a southern ground hornbill to the new wishlist?

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but I don't do replacements here. I just create a new list every year. I believe your old list was already tallied, and my script will exclude your new one. I will create a new wishlist around the anniversary, assuming they continue support. I'll be happy to count up your new animals then.

This is a wishlist for HABITAT animals only. This one will account for prioritization. You can post 10 to 50 animals. The first animal should be your favorite, and the last should be your least favorite.

There will be no resubmissions, but the list will be renewed each year until they stop making DLCs. Posts may be edited throughout the current month, but I won't look at new changes after the month ends. (i.e. If the ORIGINAL post was on December 15th, I won't start adding it until January 1st. Then, you can't edit animals.) Please use this time to correct formatting and remove disqualified animals.

The spirit and basic rules of the thread will be similar to those of the first one. Which means:
  • What to do and how the lists work:
    • For the sake of keeping the same wishlist structure, I ask you to post your 10-50 essential habitat species that you’d like to see in the game. Lists with anything above 50 or under 10 animals will be discarded.
    • Only the first 25 animals will be counted for a list with the counts. All will be used with the other lists, calculating median requested animals from each group, and the percentage of people requesting animals.
    • Please use the numbered list.
    • The "Favorites" list will incorporate the animals people want the most
      • X = position on wishlist
      • Y = list length
      • Priority points received = (list length + 1 - X) / (Y*(Y+1)/2) * 100
    • To simplify data collection, those answers that include several species in one slot (i.e. pelican) will be automatically treated as a single animal and added to the most requested species inside that generic animal group (eg. in this case: Great White Pelican). This obviously leads to an underestimation of the total key requested animals.
  • What not to vote for:
    • Exhibit animals will be omitted from the main meta-wishlist. Exhibit animals include arthropods, amphibians, snakes, other small reptiles (< iguanas), small fish, sloths, and tiny mammals (tamarin is about the smallest).
    • Flying birds and bats usually housed in aviaries will be omitted from the main meta-wishlist. Flying aviary birds include birds of prey, parrots, Columbiformes (pigeons), Passeriformes (small birds), Charadriiformes (gulls) and so on. If it spends most of its time flying or perching, it does not belong on this list.
    • Extinct and cryptid species will not be considered.
    • Animals that are already in the game.
    • If you already voted for a specific species of a group (i.e. Mandarin duck), you can't follow that with a generic vote (i.e. any duck). That would count the Mandarin duck twice, which isn't allowed.
  • What is allowed:
    • Most extant animals that will work within the constraints of the game.
    • As a general rule of thumb, animal species is the preferred category for animal submissions. Subspecies from already in-game animals are also accepted. Subspecies from animals that are not in-game will automatically be allocated to the superior species category. Specific domestic animal breeds are also accepted.
    • Mainly ground-dwelling or semi-aquatic birds (mainly Waterfowl, Galliformes, Ratites, Pelecaniformes, Cranes, Penguins, etc.) will be added to the list.
    • Aquatic animals roughly the size of a dwarf caiman and up are allowed on the list.

      • Y = list length
      • Priority points received = (list length + 1 - X) / (Y*(Y+1)/2) * 100
    • To simplify data collection, those answers that include several species in one slot (i.e. pelican) will be automatically treated as a single animal and added to the most requested species inside that generic animal group (eg. in this case: Great White Pelican). This obviously leads to an underestimation of the total key requested animals.
  • What not to vote for:
    • Exhibit animals will be omitted from the main meta-wishlist. Exhibit animals include arthropods, amphibians, snakes, other small reptiles (< iguanas), small fish, sloths, and tiny mammals (tamarin is about the smallest).
    • Flying birds and bats usually housed in aviaries will be omitted from the main meta-wishlist. Flying aviary birds include birds of prey, parrots, Columbiformes (pigeons), Passeriformes (small birds), Charadriiformes (gulls) and so on. If it spends most of its time flying or perching, it does not belong on this list.
    • Extinct and cryptid species will not be considered.
    • Animals that are already in the game.
    • If you already voted for a specific species of a group (i.e. Mandarin duck), you can't follow that with a generic vote (i.e. any duck). That would count the Mandarin duck twice, which isn't allowed.
  • What is allowed:
    • Most extant animals that will work within the constraints of the game.
    • As a general rule of thumb, animal species is the preferred category for animal submissions. Subspecies from already in-game animals are also accepted. Subspecies from animals that are not in-game will automatically be allocated to the superior species category. Specific domestic animal breeds are also accepted.
    • Mainly ground-dwelling or semi-aquatic birds (mainly Waterfowl, Galliformes, Ratites, Pelecaniformes, Cranes, Penguins, etc.) will be added to the list.
