A Lagomorph

Another waterfowl (Duck or Goose) IF I could pick I'd go with Mandarin.

And a Pheasant! I think they are cool and I like whichever species would make it to the game.

Seriously hope to see Pallas' Cat! I think the Himalayan Grumpy Cat has a real chance depending on DLC theme! Grey Fox I'm hoping could be an oddball for a New Worlds Pack! Bat-eared Fox I don't see happening just because we already have Fennec, Wild Dog etc...
 
Rooting for those as well! Musk Ox is both majestic and adorable! An icon of the Far North of New World AND Parts of the Old.
Scottish Wild Cat would be a nice complement to the Sand Cat (as would Pallas' Cat).
Sea Otter is unlike other otters we have.
White-faced whistling duck is cool.
The Colobus is one of the coolest primate. I am not much of a primate fan yet I think they are awesome.
 
Well with a possible tease and announcement inbound it is truly time for final predictions!

Come one, come all! Place your bets on the table! The game is simple, for every prediction made right you get 1 point! The person with the most points wins! You can also double, triple, or quadruple down on predictions! You will get bonus points if you are right. If you are wrong however, you will lose points! If you don’t double, triple, or quadruple down you will not lose points if you are wrong. High risk, high reward.

An example:
  1. Prediction 1: we will get a bird
  2. Prediction 2: we will get a monkey (double down)
If I get both right I got 3 points! If I got prediction #1 right, but #2 wrong I would be at -1. If I got both wrong though, I am at -2 points.

You can be as safe or as crazy as you want to be. This is the final call for last spring 2024 DLC predictions! Place your bets on the table!

  6. Warm-blooded Animals will outnumber cold-blooded

My Top 5:
Sorry, I can't help listing them all. I would be so excited to see any of them. At the species level, the Golden Lion Tamarin, American Black Bear, and to a slightly lesser extent the serval are all pretty special to me:
  • Tamarin(s): The Golden Lion Tamarin is my favorite, and I'm glad to see it getting some love here! They hover around #10 on the wishlist, but I still find them underrated.

  • American Black Bear: It's my one big local star animal. I really want it. Add in the spectacled bear, and the bears would be done at the species level.
1713538540232.png

  • Serval: It's my favorite little cat, and I've seen it in zoos often. The ocelot and Pallas's cat seem pretty important, too. I hope we can get them all.
1713538606361.png

  • Geoffroy's Spider Monkey and/or Other Monkey(s): With its color morphs and brachiation, the Geoffroy's spider monkey is my favorite option for a second monkey, but there are so many good ones I'd be happy to see.
1713537706858.png

  • Mandarin Duck and/or other birds: I really want a duck in the game's roster, so the modders will be able to make a bunch of good ones that quack. Getting any duck is probably more important than the rest, but there are a bunch of birds that would be good. A rig for a pelican and a pheasant would also be super useful. I think Africa needs a flashy one, like the grey-crowned crane (my favorite individual habitat bird species) and/or secretary bird. A Caribbean pink/red bird, a rhea, and a North American temperate species (if we don't get the duck or pelican) also seem important for regional rep and general bird representation.

  • Honorable Mentions (not otherwise listed): Coati, Tree Kangaroo, Muntjac, Markhor, Echidna

I love how all of the sudden we have all of decided that the White faced whistling duck is now the go to duck species to ask for haha

I still want the mandarín duck more, but is My second most wanted duck species.
I think the whiteface is cool because it's a very good-looking duck, very much present in many zoos and both African and South American. I'd love the mandarin as well.
