5 Favourite species as a whole & why?

[Kittyinpink87]

Rabbits : the ears! they might be my favorite species in the game. some of my favorite villagers in the game and some of the cutest villagers ( in my opinion)

Cats : my favorite animal in real life. i like their pointy ears and long tails. many of the cat villagers are plain and simple, and i like that.

Hamsters : so chubby!!

Dogs : i actually don't care for floppy eared dogs in real life , but they are so sweet and cuddly. i like the colors on a lot of them.

Mice : i don't really love any in particular , but i really love the design of them. big 'ol ears! so cute.

Eagles are all pretty solid... I think a lot of people write em off because of the big beak, but hello its an Eagle! what do you expect! Frank, Keaton, Celia, Avery are all cool villagers! Amelia and Apollo, eh

Cats... pretty basic, but the variation of them is extremely good! Tangy is my favorite villager! A cat that's an orange? so creative... the dogs are all basic too, but omg they are all so vanilla......

Hamsters! A bold move on adding them, but I think they are adorable and despite having the same personalities, they bring something different to each one! Like a Cranky tall bear is different from a cranky hamster, and I appreciate the irony in them

Deer... yeah I know a lot of people will pick these, but for good reasons! all their designs are solid! The fact that they have gazelle, antelope, reindeer, and regular deer keeps it interesting too!

Rabbits, I think because they are the most realistic villagers and most human looking and I like having that diversity from the very much-so animals of all the other species

Cats - I love how most of the cat designs are, they're so cute.

Wolves - wolves are so sweet and their designs are really neat as well.

Deer - Just the thought of deer being in the game pleases me so much.

Rabbit - I love how their ears are

Kangaroo - I love how some of them have roos, I find it the most adorable thing ever.

Ducks-Ever since I adopted Joey I wanted to get more duck villagers so I made a whole town full of 'em.I wish Nintendo would let them swim in my town's ponds.That would be cool.

Pigs-I'm a big fan of the classic Looney Tunes cartoons and have always liked Porky Pig plus they all have that curly tail.

Frogs-They're small,bug-eyed and they don't need no stinkin' umbrellas.

Squirrels-With the exception of a dull Poppy,I've never had a bad squirrel in my towns.

Bears-Pinky has been a favorite of mine since the Gamecube AC.I like how Nintendo made them a lot bigger for New Leaf.

Koalas-Big,fuzzy ears.Oops..that's six.I lost track.

anteaters: i quite honestly love all of them in terms of their character designs. not just that, but i also love how their cute little noses move as they speak. that, and many of them have bushy tails. <3

eagles: eagles happen to be my most favourite animal, so to see them in ac:nl makes me very happy. in fact, i was even thinking about having amelia in my town for a long time, but i decided against it after another dreamie of mine appeared first before she did.

sheep: i just love how fluffy they are and how they wear scarves rather than clothing. i can't say i like all of the sheep villagers, but the ones i do like happen to be some of my favourites of all time.

deer: while i can't say i love them as much as the above species, i still think that many of the deer villagers look very cute and creative. i wouldn't mind having a deer villager one day, even.

kangaroo: admittedly, there are only one or two kangaroo villagers whose designs i like, but the reason they're my favourite is the concept. to see little joeys in a female kangaroo's pouch is really adorable. that, and i'm slightly biased because i live in australia.

Cubs- I love Maple to death and I also love Poncho and Bluebear. Pekoe was a good villager too.

Squirrels- I've had Marshal, Hazel, and Peanut. I currently have Filbert for the 2nd time and Static. I love them all so much. So small and so awesome. I think I would love to have any of them...even Nibbles who is my least favorite.

Horses- I have Papi and Annalise and they're seriously so underrated. More people should get into them but hopefully they don't so I can have these uniquely awesome villagers to myself XD

Monkeys- I will admit I got bored of Shari and Nana quickly in my town, but I will not deny that they are very underrated and have good designs that don't get appreciated.

Penguins- Because Aurora is my all time favorite villager for the past 14 years and, while I dislike all penguins except her, Cube, and maybe Sprinkle, I LOVE her and her design, personality, etc.

Honorable mention: Frogs (Shoutout to Lily, Puddles, Drift, Henry, and even Jambette XD)

Squirrels: They are soooo cute! It's really hard to find a squirrel I don't like
Deer: they're really graceful and cute
Hamsters: also cute, I just want to hug them!
Monkeys: again, very cute and they often have great faces
Cats: I love real life cats, they're my fifth favourite in game, but in the real world they're the best!

I'd love to see this as a poll!

Sheep - hands down my favourite animals in the game! They're just so fluffy and round, and they look funny when they walk. The scarves they wear are so cute. I want to have had them all in my town at one point!

Ostriches - I really would love one of them to move into my town. I really love their design and their long necks.

Ant-eaters - Antonio is one of my faves and I love everything about his snout, bushy tail and round body. So cute and fluffy!

Crocodile - Reptiles are awesome and I really love their design.

Hippo - They all look really cute and I love their teeth.

I'm not really fond of the cats, mice or dogs. They're a bit boring.

dogs - there are very few dogs that aren't adorable and i think most of them are so underrated, they're so sweet!
cats - probably the most popular species in game, but for a good reason. probably my personal favorite actually
squirrels - almost all of them have such great designs & are really cute
bear cubs - bluebear, maple & stitches are the cutest damn things, and while i hate the big bears, the cubs are precious little things
deer - i can't even think of a deer that i don't like with the exception of deirdre, but even her i don't absolutely hate

Uhh rabbits, squirrels, sheep... and cats and I guess wolves! Rabbits squirrels and sheep are the top ones for sure. They're all so precious and adorable! I love 'em so much!

1) Ducks
I feel like I might be alone on this, haha! There are a few ducks that I really can't stand, but then three of my favorites are ducks--I don't think I love them because they are ducks, but they happen to be ducks. Bonus points for their adorable, webbed footprints.

2) Cats
My main town is in constant danger of being overrun with cats! I have three already, and whenever I think of shaking things up a bit to bring in a few new villagers, there is always at least one cat on my "want" list. I do like cats IRL, and the game has many great ones to choose from.

3) Sheep
They are so fluffy and cute! I mean, they can't even clap; they just pat their wool in excitement. It's also fun that they wear scarves instead of shirts. The sheep seem very stylish.

4) Wolves
They are just so cool looking! I especially like the cranky wolves, because even through they are grumpy predators by nature, they are still sweet underneath.

5) Bear Cubs
One word: Maple. The bear cubs, IMO, are the cutest species because of their little teddy bear legs and adorable little tails. Maybe it's my imagination, but the two bear cubs in my town always seem to be the happiest of all my villagers.
