If you could add another Zoo Tycoon 2 expansion pack

If you had the time/skills to make another expansion pack for Zoo Tycoon 2, what would you call it and what 20 animals would it have? Don't forget to add a theme, and any potential new feature (if possible)

FANTASTIC FAUNA

Animals

So, I divided the 20 species into groups of 5 for the following continents: N America, S America, Australia, Asia (Europe has many species from other continents, Africa had an entire expansion for it, and Antarctica is mostly penguins/seals):

1. Coyote
2. Pronghorn
3. American Black Bear
4. American Alligator
5. White-Tailed Deer
6. Spectacled Caiman
7. Greater Rhea
8. Guanaco
9. Giant Otter
10. Capybara
11. Tasmanian Devil
12. Dingo
13. Yellow-Footed Rock Wallaby
14. Emu
15. Southern Hairy-Nosed Wombat
16. Dhole
17. Gharial
18. Sloth Bear
19. Bactrian Camel
20. Siberian Tiger

THEME

World Theme: brick and concrete, but ornamental. Similar to the PZ Classic Theme

NEW FEATURES

Mostly animal-guest interactions, other than attacks

1. Walk-Through Habitats
2. Petting Zoo

No offense taken. And yes, it is true what you said, but, instead of speculating what PZ will add, and then shooting down Frontier because of their choices, why not shift a little attention on PZ's grandad (plus, it was made by the same people)? Also, the same argument could be said of animal wishlists. Why have a wishlist if they likely won't add it?

Better than griping and looking at PZ with the glass half empty, that's for sure. But just forget about this one. It was a mistake, I guess😕

Zoo tycoon 2 was not made by Frontier it was Blue fang. Zoo tycoon Xbox was Microsoft’s game, but Frontier contributed

No big deal with the thread. Tbh every animal on your list has probably been done to a high quality level. Zt2 has quite a large modding community or at least did. Zt2 is a great game but most people have moved away from it as even tho planet zoo doesn’t have as many animals ( factoring in mods) the game is just simply better. This is the zoo game I always hoped a zt3 would be.

My overall impression from all gaming forums is that they create those sections to keep the forum clean. Having those wishlists in feedback or general discussion makes it difficult to read sometimes. It becomes a mess pretty quickly and people avoid the forum if there's no clear structure. Really depends on the type of game, what kind of structure you need.

And wishlists/suggestions are mostly meant for the community to discuss things and maybe/hopefully trigger something with a dev (maybe some inspiration)
So: "I have an idea/wish what I think would make this game better, what does the community think about my idea?"
Not an actual suggestion box for the devs, i've seen people getting upset because Frontier doesn't respond to their idea/suggestion.
If 9 out of 10 threads are about the same subject, I think a dev could really consider putting this together - if this fits with their future plans with the game.
Like some devs don't make expansions but just make a sequel with updated features, while another dev keeps updating/changing their original game.

Same here, didn't like some features from ZT2 (like zoo keeper mode) and I'm glad PZ has a more building/management feel to it - compared to ZT2.
A bit expected if you looked at PC.

I know what y'all mean. If it weren't for the mods, ZT2 would've been dead a long time ago, but it's still hanging on by a thread.
To be honest, at 1st I didn't really like it (I was maybe a little bit too nostalgic), but now, Planet Zoo is among one of my favorites
