Rather than add to the many wishlists, this is more just discussion of what you really hope Frontier will focus on. It can be areas, group of animals, specific animals, themes...whatever. All I ask for this thread is not for it to become just a list of a bunch of animals as a post. In fact, if you don't want to even discuss specific animals, having a general group you refer to is fine.
Major missing types of animals - the big two types here, Primates, specifically New World Primates, and Habitat (ground or water oriented) Birds. Honestly I was pushing for Exhibit birds as well, but with the issues I'm having obtaining a Sloth (still only have for two different zoos and I've been trying a lot this week), I'm a bit worried how that would go under the current Exhibit market. New World Primates are a group that I'm not even all that invested in, but totally agree with the need for the overall community. Getting two at minimum is necessary and I'd rather we actually got four. Habitat birds I'd love to get at least a half dozen.
Areas of the world - South America, both the Amazon and non-Amazon, need to big additions as does North Africa/Middle East. Even animals I'm not personally all that interested in would be considered good additions by me just for the point of filling in the roster for the area.
One offs -
I'm desperate for a Wolverine at this point. If we look at Europe/upper Asia and North America, it's the only animal that I am truly missing. And I am really missing it. Essentially anything colder or mountainous, this is the one animal that I really feel needs to make it into the game.
Old World Porcupine - another animal that pretty much defines a biome for me at this point. If I had to pick one animal for the more dry environments that my zoos are missing, it comes down to our spiky friends.
Tasmanian Devil - Definitely want them in as well for me, but also the community has been hungering for this animal for a long long time. For just my purposes it would come behind the Wolverine and Porcupine, but that in no way translates to me not wanting to see it in the game.
Spectacled Bear - my biggest South American want now, we've not gotten a bear in two years, and this gives us a very unqiue bear in terms of distribution.
If I gathered all of these together, and in that last group those were the only other non-primate mammals we get for the game, I could at least feel like all my regions and wants are pretty well covered. So if Frontier were to hit all of these points, get us more primates, birds and these other four mammals, I'd be really happy even if that were all they were to bring to the game.
