Ok, then...

1. Formosan rock macaque
2. Tanuki
3. Sika deer (mascot)
4. Demoiselle crane
5. Golden pheasant
6. Chinese alligator
7. Giant salamander (any)

EDIT: If we can include exhibit animals, I'd like to add the Chinese softshell turtle.

Scenery theme / exhibit: Urban Japan building set

Animals:

1. Tanuki (mascot)
2. Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey
3. Japanese Giant Salamander (still have my doubts on these guys working as habitat animals, but I wouldn't want to leave them out)
4. Japanese Serow
5. Mandarin Duck
6. Reeve's Muntjac
7. Sika Deer

Chinese alligator would make a good accompanying anniversary species. It could also replace the salamander in the scenario of it not working into current habitat mechanics. Would be a lot more of a realistic pick too, especially with the duck already being my locked-in "high effort" request if we continue to get one of those per pack.

Sika deer over Père David's is purely personal bias. It doesn't have the conservation importance, but it's more common in zoos and certainly has memes going for it.

I wanted to include crested ibis, but it sadly didn't feel justifiable with it only being held in Asia.

Sorry, but the most animals from your list are not native in East Asia.

 

[Planetwildlife]

Sorry, but the most animals from your list are not native in East Asia.

How about these?

1. Himalayan wolf
2. Francois Langur
3. Masked Palm Civet
4. Sunda Pangolin
5. Water Deer
6. Sika Deer
7. Leopard Cat

1. Himalayan wolf
2. Francois Langur
3. Masked Palm Civet
4. Sunda Pangolin
5. Water Deer
6. Sika Deer
7. Leopard Cat

Aside from the Sunda pangolin, all of these animals are native in East Asia.

 

[Matyej167]

I said it wrong, since only the Nilgai and Four-horned antelope are not native in East Asia.

The Gaur is also native in China, but not the Indian subspecies.

 

[Matyej167]

The list is firstly updated!

 

[Robongio]

1. Domestic Yak
2. Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey
3. Himalayan Monal
4. Japanese Raccoon Dog
5. Mandarin Duck
6. Onager
7. Père David's Deer (Mascot)
8. Chinese Giant Salamander (Walkthrough Exhibit)*

*If you ask me, East Asia honestly doesn't need a second scenery theme.

 

[Matyej167]

[*]Chinese Giant Salamander (Walkthrough Exhibit)*

I modified the rules, so you can add one exhibit animal, if you want it.

 

[Sifaka]

1. Sika Deer
2. Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey
3. Japanese Serow
4. Chinese alligator
5. Tanuki
6. Demoiselle crane
7. Masked palm civet

[Matyej167]

Anyone else?

 

[ChicoGenialoso1]

Of all Asia, I think that the East and South are the least represented parts of the continent, so I'd like to see this DLC happen in the future. Anyway, here's my grain of sand.

1. Tanooki (Mascot)
2. Japanese Serow
3. Golden Snub-Nosed Monkey
4. Yak
5. Père David's Deer
6. Rhesus Macaque
7. Demoiselle Crane

Scenery? Maybe a Chinese Set, or a Japan set

 

[Matyej167]

Scenery? Maybe a Chinese Set, or a Japan set

I think, the Tibetan set would be fit for this DLC, too.

 

[ChicoGenialoso1]

I think, the Tibetan set would be fit for this DLC, too.

Yeah, it could be. I mean, in the release we already had an East Asia set (based on Japan). Another country could be a better option (Like Tibet or Mongolia)
