Essential Rodent/Lagomorph wishlist

Everyone wants more birds/primates for PZ, but at the same time there is another group of animals, of which there are also very few species in the game...

These are the RODENTS!

In addition, the Lagomorphs (rabbits/hares and pikas) are a completly absent group of animals in the PZ, but the most people likes the rabbit, since this is a cute animal.

Main Rule: maximum 10 species/breeds of rodents/lagomorphs (including the breeds of the Domestic rabbit) are allowed!

1. Alpine marmot
2. Flemish giant rabbit
3. European red squirrel
4. Guinea pig
5. Patagonian mara
6. Desmarest's hutia
7. Lop rabbit
8. Arctic hare
9. North American porcupine
10. Indian giant squirrel

Some of these are a big stretch, but I wouldn’t be unhappy with any of them. It’s worth noting that my vision for naked mole rats necessitates a new exhibit type, so they aren’t exactly a realistic addition outside of a PZ2 base game scenario, imo. I’d also like to see a handful of murids, but again - not without an exhibit rework, so I’ll deprioritize those.

I don't believe any lagomorphs are essential, but if I was going to pick one it would be the Amami rabbit.

As for rodents:
  1. Prevost's squirrel.
  2. Agouti (any species).
  3. Patagonian mara.
  4. Brazilian porcupine.
That's kind of it. Maybe also the Northern Luzon giant cloud rat.
