New 25 essential habitat animals META-WISHLIST

Thanks to everyone submitting their additional votes and of course to the new ones for participating! I am updating the list as of now. Since there have been so many posts and questions I'll answer in the meantime:

Sorry but the original list you submit is the definitive one. I could easily change your vote as you request but it'd set a bad precedent and people could start asking for replacements non-stop. I hope you understand and thanks for submitting your additional animals!

Thanks Markiz!

In case it wasn't clear, sorry but nope, replacements aren't and won't be a thing.

Sorry but nope. As it's been discussed here before, fully aquatic animals are allowed as long as they're big enough to be considered habitat animals. This is based on two criteria: 1) it is currently pretty much possible to build aquariums with some workarounds and if you disguise the habitat gate and the piece the land in front of it. 2) Animal behaviour (the time they spend on water) can be changed relatively easily. It's not like implementing a completely new system like proper aviaries (which btw hasn't been a thing in the zoo simulation games industry until JWE2).

That's it, indeed. Your 5 additional votes are being recorded.

I appreciate it!


It's in the works!

I mean any additional animals. I'll just ignore the other question lol.
Your 4 additional votes are good ;)

I'm not entirely familiar with burrowing owl but wouldn't they be considered 'aviary animals'? I mean, don't they behave mostly like any other owl or bird of prey? If someone (including you) has more input on this I'd appreciate it. Otherwise I'd prefer if you included a different animal. Your list is on hold for now until confirmation ;)

I'll only pick your 5 first animals since replacements are not allowed. Sorry!

Nope, as it's been said, just 5 sorry. Please re-post your list when you decide which 5 you want to include.

Also, a reminder to @Barje to pick just 5 animals out of your additional list. Thanks.
Oh ok.

In that case my extra 5 are:
1. Caracal
2. Red river hog
3. Mandarin duck
4. Sloth bear
5. Blackbuck
 
For a long time I withhold from taking part in this list, because out of my original 30 animal list 0 were included at first. And I just couldnt bring myself to cut 10 animals out 😅However, the NA and Europe pack brought 3 animals from my old list to the game (California Sea Lion, Prairie dog and Eurasian lynx) and thankfully this list was extended to 25 animals, which means now I only have to cut 2 - which was still very hard, to be honest.

1. Orca
2. Bottlenose Dolphin
3. Amazon river dolphin
4. Beluga
5. Harbour porpoise
6. Przewalski's horse
7. Asian Leopard Cat
8. Tanuki
9. Patagonian Mara
10. Kirk's dik-dik
11. Masked palm civet
12. Lowland paca
13. Saiga antelope
14. Kiwi
15. Echidna
16. Squirrel monkey
17. European wildcat
18. Red fox
19. Wombat
20. Pudu
21. Tasmanian Devil
22. Greater bamboo lemur
23. Coati
24. Aardwolf
25.White stork

  1. Red Fox
  2. Manatee
  3. Capybara
  4. Wombat
  5. Spectacled/Andean Bear
  6. Sloth (any kind would be awesome)

  8. Goodfellow's Tree Kangaroo
  9. Tasmanian Devil
  10. Kiwi
  11. Emu

There was a lot of new votes lately so I just can’t wait to see how the list is going to change now.

Especially after the Europe pack release - I wonder if red deer will become less popular?
Are there going to be some new and unexpected animals that will make it to the top now?

Even if we ask that game's designer, the answer was probably this: wait. Not even a hint.

I hope not (about the red deer decreasing in popularity) because I still want them in the game, especially now Frontier has shown they can make drop dead gorgeous deer. ❤️

I wonder about new and unexpected animals making it to the top... I hope something like a Patagonian mara rises through the ranks :)

I remember the time when porcupine and Tasmanian devil were both quite low on the list and was not popular at all 🙃
 
I'll try to list 25 . . . but might add/subtract them sporadically or just give some now and TBC for the rest - I am biased and tending to want wet animals and Frontiers swimming mechanics are AWESOME, Also - i think there needs more variety of types of animals and Aquatics or Aviary animals are so needed - the animal roster is getting very same/same - to me and I tend to go for the wetter animals in game because you can do so much more with their enclosures. (also new Transport animals [not really animals])

1. Dugong
2. Manitee
3. Stingray
4. Manta-ray
5. Platypus
6. Groper (super big fish)
7. Dolphin
8. Orca
9. Beluga
10. Sharks - Bull, Great White (this just would be fun, not practical), Black tip Reef Shark.
11. Whale shark - (because Japanese Aquariums have some OMG)
12. arapaima gigas - just because Amazonian Huge fish are Ace :)
13. Amazonian River Dolphin
14. Discus
15. Red Bellied Pirana
16. Lungfish (Australian)
17. Electric Eels
18. Jelly Fish
19. Giant Crabs
20.
