More ungulates

Definitely. Most important to me on this List would be Père David's Deer, Red Deer (I think the Asian ones are a different Species from the European one but might also be that both live in Asia), Przewalski's Horse and the Gaur
The red deer extends right into Russia, the Caucasus, and Sinkiang (western China) and is divided into a few subspecies, but it's all one species.

Just searched for it to be completely sure. The European Red Deer (Cervus elaphus) lives in Asia too, but there's also a separate Species that lives only in Asia (Cervus hanglu)

Maybe there's a translation error - there's no species called Cervus hanglu. There's a subspecies of wapiti/elk called Cervus canadensis hanglu, otherwise known as the Kashmir stag.

According to the IUCN, this is the distribution of the red deer (cervus elaphus):

I'm going by Wikipedia - when I google Cervus hanglu it takes me straight to Cervus canadensis hanglu.
Got my Information from the German Version of Wikipedia. I'll try to find out if there's something like a official Species Database to find out which one is right

Looking into it more deeply, there seems to be a taxonomical debate as to whether the hangul is a subspecies of red deer or elk (some sources give it the trinomial C. elephus hanglu, marking it a red deer subspecies. I can't find anything to suggest that the Kashmir stag is a separate species on its own though.

According to this Website there's only Cervus elaphus and a Species named Cervus nippon (which I assume is a different Species that only lives in Japan. Never heard of that one)

Edit: OK, just googled it. Cervus nippon is the Sika Deer. Didn't expect it to be in the same Genus
 
Uh yes, give me all the ungulates! From all over the world please. European ungulates for a first, because I can't have European sections in my zoo without mods right now. I want official European content, thanks! Red deer, fallow deer, roe deer, wild boar, moose, ibex, chamois, konik horse, wisent, musk ox, Caucasian tur, kulan...
YES!!!! We need more European animals in the game
 
The main group of ungulates I want to see more of are the small ungulates, as these tend to be fairly versatile in how they can be housed with many of them suitable for mixed enclosures and walkthrough displays. There are lots of species to choose from such as duikers, dik-diks, steenbok, pudu, muntjacs, chevrotains, Chinese water deer and klipspringers; any one of those would be appreciated greatly by me.

Special mention goes to the pygmy hog - it's the world's smallest wild pig which is kept in at least one public zoo (Assam State Zoo in India), has been kept and bred in at least a couple of European zoos in the past (London and Zurich, that I know of) and they are bred in large numbers at specialist breeding facilities for release into the wild. I think it is at one of these breeding facilities where this footage from Planet Earth was actually filmed. Although it's not a widespread species, they are definitely one of my favourite ungulates and would, I think, be a great addition to the game.

The pygmy hog is adorable!!!! Yeah smaller ungulates are super versatile and will bring so much life to the game

It's basically every Ungulate I can name! ...because... why not?
I would love all of these!! The only thing I think that may not happen is sumatran rhinoceroses because of their sensitivity to captivity and being hard to house. I know Cincinnati Zoo had some but idk if PZ would do it
 
In my opinion, the game severely lacks Asian hoof stock. I think we should get more species like:

Blackbuck
Pere David’s Deer
Nilgai
Yak
Red Deer
Przewalski’s Horse
Takin
Markhor
Gaur
Himalayan Tahr
YES!!! Asian hoof stock is always what I need to help flesh out exhibits but all we have is malayan tapir
