I think there's approximately a 0% chance that we aren't getting a badger. One of the animals was repeatedly referred to as stout, which is an adjective I heavily associate with badgers over any other species. Additionally badgers are so synonymous with burrows I wouldn't be surprised if burrows' entire inclusion stemmed from a discussion on how to properly implement the badger.

Honestly I'm less positive on the ibex at this point than I am on the badger, and I'm 99% certain on the ibex.

I really hope you're right 🙏 Not having the badger in a Europe Pack seems impossible to me. Such a unique European animal. And when I read about the burrows coming in the update, I also immediately thought "OK, this means we are getting the badger". But I guess I don't want to be too confident because I still remember how disappointed I was when we did not get the raccoon in the NA Pack...

The burrow update does suggest to me a badger rather than a wolverine. While wolverines do dig burrows, they tend to do so into snowdrifts rather than earth. Once they have bred and the snow has melted wolverines revert to sleeping above ground, hiding under bushes or fallen trees. Badgers on the other hand, use complex burrow systems all year round.

Also, while I have never seen or heard of a wolverine enclosure with underground viewing with badgers it is almost a requirement, as in this German mustelid park:

Now that you mention it, I wonder which Building Style we'll get. I don't really think a Gothic Style is of much Use in a Zoo. I'd love a Wildpark/Forest Theme that includes new wooden Walls, Tree Trunk Benches, Tree Stump Trash Cans, maybe a Tree Stand, a Crib like the ones that are sometimes used to feed Forest Animals during Winter....
A Set for Half timbered Houses would also be useful even though those can already be made with ingame Pieces even though it's a lot of Work

I hope it includes more modern style zoo stuff similar to what we see in European zoos

Modern Pieces would be really nice. Sometimes I'd like to create something modern looking but don't really know how to do it

Pretty sure (even though I've never seen/read it) in the Movie/Book it's a White tailed Deer😉

Mostly kept in alpine area and Germany. 112 is quite big number, but as you can see it concerate in one area. Ibex is very niche outside of its natural range.
