Hayo! Just saw this section and I was like.. OMG I have to post here!
What I really would like to see in Planet Zoo are the following:
- A playground; every zoo has them, every kid loves them (maybe even more than the zoo itself - at certain ages, lol)
This would maybe be easy to create the same way as picnic benches.. have a variety of playground contraptions to put down at a large (natural) paths so the kids can reach it to play on them.
- Feeding times: I would love to set different times when animals get food from the zookeepers and that more people gather around the enclosure to watch it. That being said, I also really hope we will get more than the round feeders we have seen so far. I would love to put down just a piece of meat or fish on the ground, instead of in a round feeder Just like you have in Zoo Tycoon with different types of food to put into your enclosures.
- Marine Mammals such as seals, sea lions, walrus, beluga whales, dolphins, manatees, sea otters, and polar bears and please don't forget my most favorite animal the Orca! I know it's pretty controversial, but I would love to see them in the game but obviously without shows! They would obviously need a HUGE water enclosure nothing like you see in Sea World or parks like that, but HUGE HUGE! Maybe the whole size of my park? I can live with that but please give me orca's!
- Aquariums: obviously I am hoping for different sizes of aquariums to get full freedom to decorate around it ourselves. Obviously, tunnels like this would also be a dream ♥ and of course lot's of corals to put down ourselves.
- Aviary's and Butterfly Domes where the people can really walk through and the butterflies and birds will fly around them. Same would go for bat caves of course
- Waterfalls: of course I would love to see some VFX's waterfall items to create ourselves, it would also be cool to see waterfalls as we had in RCT3 and Zoo Tycoon 2. It would be even more awesome if the animals would be able to interact with the waterfalls. Like elephants love water, so elephants (and other animals) playing underneath a waterfall would be so cool
- Freedom in enclosures: now we don't know exactly yet how the enclosure size will work together with putting down lots of rocks. But I am hoping at least to be able to make these kinda enclosures, without having to fear my animals will get unhappy because they don't have enough "flat" ground to walk on. So my wish here would be to be able to go as nuts as I want without having to fear my animals would die for not having enough grass to walk on. Also, ropes please for monkeys to use and play with
- Talking about monkeys.. please make them throw poop to the guests! Please and thank you
- Guests making pictures: I know we've already seen Planet Coaster peeps making pictures with their phones, but I would love to see some real photographers in the game
- Invisible animal beddings: as we, again, don't know exactly what we will get in the game, I just would like to say I would love to see a bit of freedom when putting down "beddings" and would like to see more as the hay we have seen in the screenshots.. maybe just an invisible one, so we can completely get freedom with this
- Connection of the inside and outside: I don't really know how to explain this one. But I would love to be able to create inside and outside enclosures connected as you see in realtime zoo's. I don't think we have really seen it yet but maybe connected with a (small) gate/door or anything like that so the animals can really go through a gate/door to go inside and outside. Can't really tell from the images we have seen now cause so far, these were only big shelters or a cave inside of the terrain.
Well, this is all I can think of right now You asked for my wishes, I will give you my wishes! But obviously DeLady is always happy with whatever she gets and DeLady can't wait to play Planet Zoo at GamesCom 
(I do am curious how many of my wishes already are in development but just are not revealed yet)
I'll keep my fingers crossed
Keep up the amazing work lovely people ♥
Much love,

. The marine ideas are great, but fit more into a big expansion in my opnion. Hopefully not all DLC will have the same structure, such as in PlanCo (e.g. same price, few rides/coasters, some new scenery), because that would limit the marine expansion enormous. Marine is an example which should be 2-3 times the size of a PlanCo DLC, with new features instead of only adding new items.
