What new villager species would you like to see or what species would you like to see more of?

There are many, many I could go for. I think it's really awesome that they made characters based on extinct species in the Dodo Airlines bros, so in that vein, I think thylacines would make awesome villagers!

Geckos, salamanders, newts, and other amphibians and reptiles would be neat!

Hyena and cheetah villagers would be a must for me, as well as honey badgers and wolverines! Bats and seals! Ferrets, polecats, and weasels! Mongooses, meerkats, warthogs, peccaries, fossa, fishers, shrews, capybaras, guinea pigs, voles, and hyraxes! Other bird types such as spoonbills, storks, cassowaries, rails, gannets, auks, parrots, and ravens would be cool!

Villagers of foxes, skunks, and raccoons (NOT Tom Nook and the Nooklings; those are TANUKI) could be cool! Maybe red pandas!

How about REALLY obscure? Like the Sable (a type of marten, not the shy brown hedgehog seamstress)! Or the coatis/coatimundis! Or the civets and genets!

Also, geese and swans. Not super keen on either bird IRL but it'd be cool to see them in Animal Crossing! They could have longer necks, narrower beaks, and smaller heads than the ducks.

We need more tigers, non-cranky kangaroos, and octopus villagers, as well as female lions (perhaps a lioness villager species)! Also, we need each species to have at least one animal of every personality, because currently there are fourteen species that don't have a Sisterly/Big Sister/Uchi villager at all (brought down from 15 with Reneigh, the horse)! I feel like with Cyd's design, we'd be getting another personality that's more punkish than simply a cranky villager, so that's a little odd that it didn't happen, but that's fine too.

Designs of pre-existing species could be nice if they included designs based on extinct species too, such as Tucker looking like a mammoth (and as a slight aside, I find it baffling they didn't put tusks on ANY elephants until they made one that looks like a mammoth, but I digress). Also, designs based on untouched or more obscure species, such as birds that are colored like budgerigars and kingfishers.

Any idea that I could provide for new species has probably already been said, but there are several species I'd like to see more of! I'd like to see more wolves that are literally anything but snooty or cranky (not that I don't love them but man, we need some variety here) and more tigers, octopi, alligators, and ostriches! There are only 10 ostriches and I love (nearly) every single one of them because they almost all look like different types of birds and have super cool designs, but I'd absolutely love to have more of them. There are only 7 each of alligators and tigers. And there are only 3 octopi, 4 if they ever add back the Splatoon villagers. Also there aren't many hamsters I don't think, so it'd be cool to see more of them!
Haha yes the majority of them are snooty and cranky. I want to see some uchi and lazy wolves! Jock would be cool too

I'd happily accept a meerkat or warthog.
Those are interesting and great ideas!

wow thanks for sharing all your ideas! I think you have suggested some really unique ideas and I love the idea of genets and e.t.c. I think swans would be very elegant and fun to have! Punkish would be a great personality. Bella, Cherry, Tasha and Muffy could maybe join him!

i definitely would not complain about any new deers, wolves or cats. i’d also love to see some more octopi at some point!
 
i absolutely neeeeeed alpaca villagers!!! i know we have reese and cyrus (who i adore) but having alpaca villagers would be great. would love to have a peppy and lazy alpaca villager.

Those and llamas! We need to show the remaining camelid some love, too!
 
I’d like to see an actual phoenix and dragon; I know we have Drago and Phoebe but Dragon looks like a malformed crocodile or alligator and phoebe looks like a colorful ostrich.

Maybe shark, whale, dolphin villagers since we have Octopi. I’d like a sabertooth tiger, red panda, ocelot (just please lay off the gigantic head models).

I’d also like to see kittens like Katie.
 
i want owls so bad, celeste and blathers are so cute i want more of them. i would also love fox, seal, moth, bat, or raccoon villagers.

i would kill for an orchid mantis villager but i guess they exist only in my dreams lol.
 
One thing I really like is how the NPC dogs in the series are different breeds with distinct character models (KK, Isabelle, Harriet, Copper, Booker). It would be cool to see that type of detail extend to some dog villagers.
 
I’d love to have a dog or wolf that was designed like anubis, chinchillas, fennec fox (really any foxes.
 
I'd quite like to see Turtle and Owl villagers. I truly thought they would have added actual Owl villagers in ACNH, but alas they didn't.
 
Surprisingly...I have no interest in fox villagers. It seems like every other person wants them, so you know they'd be everywhere. It's like when you're flying onto someone's island and you have that 'Oh, there's Raymond...for the 100th time' thought.

Snakes on the other hand...I've been mulling over how they'd pull this off for a long time. They'd either have to have a cylindrical wrap for their clothing, or go the NL scarf route like they did with the sheep.

I know we have Monkeys and Gorillas, but I'd love me some Orangutans...one of my favorite animals.
 
Yeah this might be unpopular since I haven't really checked the thread so I'm gonna put my thoughts in:

Bug villagers

More reptile villagers

And an update that allows all the personalities to apply to male and female villagers. Seriously, the gendered stereotypes are strong in this game. Why is it that only male villagers can be cranky or athletes?
 
I would love to see more alligators. I think a lot of creative alligator villagers can be made.

Yes! I haven’t really thought about this until reading this here, but I agree. I think all of the personalities should apply to male and female villagers.
