Essential Alpine/Highlands animal wishlist

In the past few days, I have started biome/habitat based wishlists. The island ad savanna wishlists are done, but unfortunately there are still few voters.

If you want to join these two wishlists, you can find them here:

Now I came with a biome that more people are interested in lately. This is the ALPINE/HIGHLANDS!!!

Everyone is waiting for this year's winter DLC to be released with the theme of alpine and highlands biome, so this animal wishlist is recommended for them!

  1. All users may submit maximum 25 species, but could be less, if you want.
  2. Mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fishes and invertebrates are allowed.
  3. Only the terrestrial, freshwater and semi-aquatic marine animals are allowed.
  4. The species could be habitat or exhibit/WE animals.
