This is a pack I think woukd work better as a scenery pack (playground building pieces!) But there are an awful lot of animals I would love that would fit so well.

Nigerian dwarf goat - standard zoo baabaa
Domestic turkey - nothing foul about this barnyard fowl
Domestic rabbit - fluffy little hoppers
Muscovy duck - quackers amount of potential color varients (but honestly, ANY duck)
Squirrel monkey - I'd go bananas if these cute little fellows climbed into the game (and interspecies with the ducks!)
Coati - we want moar SA animals! (And the dev team demand a carnivore per pack)
African spurred tortoise - Bird and reptile parity!
Budgies - the cutest little walkthrough mini parrots in green, blue, yellow, white, and piebald
 
Despite my SA-only post in another thread, I would like a more worldly mixture of animals.Just saying it could be done with just SA animal.

Nubian Goat
Sheltland Pony
Alpaca
Squirrel Monkey
Patagonian Mara
Lop-Eared Rabbit
Coatimundi species
WTE: Lorikeets
 
If Scenery Pack, these are my top 5:
  • South American Coati
  • Nigerian Dwarf Goat
  • Golden Lion Tamarin (WTE)
  • Southern Tamandua
  • Mallard Duck
To add 3 more species if an animal pack:
  • Domestic Yak
  • Shetland Pony
  • African Spurred Tortoise
 
OK! Let's go

1. African pygmy goat - very requested, i don't really care about it but i think is likely to be included
2. Highland's cow (fluffy) - one of the few domestics i would be actually happy about
3. Any duck but for the sake of voting and because it serves my current project let's say muscovy
4. Patagonian mara (pleaseeee)
5. Squirrel monkey - coud be Golden lion tamarin as well
6. South american coati (please x 100)
7. Shetland pony
8. WE: budgies
 
I'm gonna leave the domestics for a separate section because I think they're their own whole other thing.
  1. Squirrel Monkey
  2. Coati
  3. Muscovy Duck
  4. Spurred Tortoise
  5. Reeves's Muntjac
  6. Raccoon Dog
  7. Greater Bilby
  8. WE: Budgies with those little feeding sticks as an interaction for children

1. White-nosed coati
2. Budgerigar
3. Spurred tortoise
4. Alpaca
5. Squirrel monkey
6. Red squirrel
7. Lorikeet - any species
8. Mallard
 
Here's my go at it with a few alternates:
  • Scottish Highland Cattle; ALTERNATE: Domestic Yak
  • African Pygmy Goat; ALTERNATE: Nigerian Dwarf Goat
  • Shetland Pony; ALTERNATE: Clydesdale
  • Pot-Bellied Pig; ALTERNATE: African Spurred Tortoise
  • Squirrel Monkey; ALTERNATE: Cotton-Top Tamarin
  • Chinchilla; ALTERNATE: Flemish Giant
  • Coatimundi; ALTERNATE: Southern Tamandua
  • Budgies; ALTERNATE: Bearded Dragon
 
Maybe at least the horses and camels.
I'd say no to the elephants too, as most zoos have become much lower contact with elephants in recent years. Pony rides and/or camel rides make sense, since those animals are truly domesticated.

For my choices:

African pygmy goats (great petting zoo animal)
Some kind of domestic horse (common in children's zoos)
Pot bellied pig (also usable in petting corral)
Coati species (these could be used in other parts of the zoo too, of course)
Muscovy duck
Rainbow lorikeets or budgies as a habitat animal
North American river otter (seem to be common in children's zoos)
Some kind of small primate, such as golden lion tamarin or squirrel monkey

One thing I'd like to see also is an animal nursery/veterinary viewing area, where guests can view some of the (non gory) care occurring for animals through one-way glass. I know facilities generally garner a negative guest effect, but veterinary clinics are generally more interesting to guests in real life than, say, water pumps or staff rooms, and they often have these viewing areas associated with children's zoos. More veterinary/animal nursery type props would be cool, though I created a puppy warmer from scratch (alas, no actual puppies can be placed in it).

Another wish list item others have mentioned is smaller animal exhibits, especially for insects and arthropods. I've done "bug zoos" in some of my zoos, but the amount of space they require is unrealistically large. These are common features in children's zoos too. I think there's a problem with the gridding system in game, though, with 4x4 currently being the smallest functional size for interactable objects? 4x4 meters is, of course, larger than many rooms.
