Essential Galliform wishlist

Matyej167

In the PZ, there are Galliform species, the Indian peafowl from the base game and the Sussex chicken from the Barnyard animal pack, but would be nice more species from this bird order. We have only 14 birds, so there could be more, from which even the Galliforms are no exception. This group of birds would be a great addition as habitat birds, even if we never get WE/Aviary birds, too.

If we have multiple Ratite, Penguin and Flamingo species, so why not multiple Galliform species?

Main Rule: only Galliform birds are allowed and maximum 10 species/domesticated breeds!

1. Wild turkey
2. Helmeted guineafowl
3. Himalayan monal
4. Ocellated turkey
5. Western capercaillie
6. Golden pheasant
7. Congo peafowl
8. Temminck's tragopan
9. Common pheasant
10. Great currasow

I love galliformes! They are all so different. I would also love wild turkey, sage grouse, California quail, vulturine guineafowl, Argus pheasant and SO many others 😍

I really think common Pheasants are a really good choice. They are found everywhere! They are iconic. I mean, when most people who are not zoo nerds think of a pheasant they probably think of ring-necked or common pheasants.
Also, for Junglefowl AND wild turkey colormorphs would be nice (IMO necessary) to represent domestic forms...
And lastly, Guineafowl would be awesome for Africa and more exotic in general...
