That would be great
Small DLC in between seasons

I'd especially love something like this for exhibit species where you would get, say, five species of a similar group. That way, you could variety among the exhibit species - I think this is especially important as among smaller animals like amphibians, reptiles and especially invertebrates there is less standardisation among zoo collections. It would also deal with the problem that has happened in past DLC where a large and normally diverse group has been represented by just a single species - the stick insects in the Southeast Asia Animal Pack particularly comes to mind here.
Here are a couple of examples I can think of:
Poison frog micro pack
Anthony's poison frog - A Near Threatened species which is red with cream stripes
Dyeing poison frog - A highly variable species that is common in captivity
Green-and-black poison frog - A mostly green species which is extremely common in zoos
Maranon poison frog - An Endangered species which is a rich brown with white spots
Yellow-banded poison frog - A yellow and black species which is extremely common in zoos
With that, you would have five new species that all have some degree of common captive presence to go alongside the two current species (one of which is incredibly rare in zoos).
Stag beetle micro pack
Fighting giant stag beetle Hexarthrius parryi - A large dark species with yellow spots from the jungles of mainland Southeast Asia
Giant stag beetle Lucanus elaphus - A large red species from the woodlands of eastern North America
Gladiator stag beetle Homoderus gladiator - An orange-yellow species with dark spots from the rainforests of Africa
Rainbow stag beetle Phalacrognathus muelleri - A brightly-coloured species with toothless jaws from the jungles of New Guinea and Queensland
Sumatran giant stag beetle Cyclommatus elaphus - A large species with an iridescent green base and some orange and purple highlights, from insular Southeast Asia
With this pack, there would be a greater range of biomes and continents represented - more so than the poison frog micro pack, which by its nature is centred entirely on Central and South America.

What are animals that you guys consider similar to what we have now but still want to see? for me:
American Black Bear
Sumatran Tiger
Barbary Ape
Nile Crocodille
American Flamingo
Sulcata Tortoise
Green Peafowl
South American Tapir
Yellow-Footer Rock Wallaby
Would be good for this type of pack

Tuataras aren't lizards, so maybe something else like another monitor lizard like the Perentie or Lace Monitor, even a Plumed Basilisk
Some regional biome packs would be great to get some niche species
So like an North American Desert Mini Pack, giving you the Collared Peccary, Greater Roadrunner and potentially Burrowing Owl
or a African Tropical Mini Pack, giving the Mantled Guereza, Dwarf/Slender Snouted Crocodile and the Giant African Millipede or African Rock Python
or even a Asian Temperate Mini Pack, giving the Raccoon Dog, Pere David's Deer and Chinese Giant Salamander or King Cobra
Stuff like this for like $5 would be amazing
