Otters!! ...

Otters seem to appear frequently in parks and zoos and I would love to see these in game! They're such an active species that interact with each other beautifully and their exhibits could be amazing!
I feel like they'd be a fun addition to the species list and true to real world zoos. Even the smaller parks and also some Sealife centres seem to house these adorable creatures.
Keeping my fingers crossed for release ... or DLC at some point (but mostly release! 😁)

I gladly support the wish for otters in Planet Zoo, they are very intelligent and interesting animals. I often take some time to observe them at my favourite zoo when I’m there.
 
Obviously they need to be in the game, whether it's just Asian Short-Clawed, or the European Smooth Coated as well. I'll take any of them :D

Or? ... why choose. I vote both 😁

Yes - ALL of the above! 😁
 
I was just writing about otters in another thread! My vote? North American river otter, Asian small-clawed otter, and giant otters.

An African species would be cool too, but we already have plenty of African species in the game ATM. :)
 
I would also love to see at least one species of otter at some point. My personal favourite is the Asian smooth-coated otter - my local zoo has a group of about twelve at the moment and they are the most active, boisterous and noisy animals in the entire place. They are also one of the species (the giant otter is the other) that routinely wins arguments with giant crocodilians.

That said, I really wouldn't mind too much which species got in - all of them have their own unique charms.
 
Otters!! though they are such aquatic animals I think I'd rather they be kept for some aquatic DLC so that aquatic animations and behaviours could be perfected.
 
That would be a pretty cool enrichment feature. I wonder if there are any other animals who might use it? I suppose it could be included as a "waterfall" type feature in other exhibits... Just thinking of a way to implement it without it having just one feature (e.g., an enrichment item for otters).
I think it would either have to be a single item or - I think a more challenging mechanic to implement - they could let you build it the way you do rides currently. Only it wouldn't be a train ride for your guests, it would be a water slide for your otters.

Maybe if we got sea lions down the road they might use it, too?
