what species should be added?

[peachmilke]

also to add to those who aren't sure about bat villagers a reddit user named chelillust made their own mock up:

 

[Vanillite]

ALIEN VILLAGERS PLS. But honestly, why not turtles/tortoises? I mean, we know it can be done-- They created Tortimer. A cranky snapping turtle, a jock sea turtle, etc.

There was a rumor going around that we would get bats in New Horizons, sadly not true. I still hope we will see them one day!! They could be very cute

Yay I saw some fan made characters, thought they were real, freaked out, but nope...

 

[Everdeen]

I want more foxes other than cousin Redd!

 

[Bioness]

Dolphins/Whales

And name one of them Aquafina.

i really think it's way past time for a generic lizard villager, not sure why there isn't any already. they could be colored to represent all kinds of species.
Bats are the fan favorite species and I couldn't agree more.
Also: female lions would be good for completion's sake.
I'd love arthropod villagers but too many people would be bothered by them I think. Fluffy tarantula or jumping spider villagers though... <3

 

[marieheiwa]

red pandas! manatees! BOTH <3

 

[frogslime]

Maybe axolotl villagers? They are cute and cartoony in real life, so I feel they'd be a perfect addition--Plus, we have Dr. Shrunk!

 

[kakuzu]

opossums , rats , sharks , lemurs ! think they would all be super duper cute ......

 

[Rave]

I'm going to second bats and insects! I'd love a bee villager.

 

[Romaki]

Foxes pls!

 

[Cancoon]

Hopefully they'll be able to bring in new villagers in updates if people continue playing as often as now?
I'd be hyped for any new species honestly, I also really want more personalities lol

 

[BubbleBlowinDoubleBaby]

Bats 100% for me. I'd love if they were primarily nocturnal, so night owls like me could have someone to speak to at night.

 

[Yachiru Hatori]

I would love it if they added, guinea pigs / Capybaras

 

[Mairen]

I think maybe a hedgehog type of villager would be cute

 

[Balverine]

Bats, other kids of dogs, maybe something cool like butterflies/moths?

 

[Pixiebelle]

another vote for BATS !!!
foxes (fennec and arctic would be adorable)
axolotls / salamanders
turtles
bees
ladybugs
more octopi
more aquatic in general (whales? dolphins?)

 

[Lucile]

An axolotl villager would be amazing (*o*)

 

[Raz]

Armadillos
Geckos
Parrots and Macaws
Meerkats
Turtles
Lemurs (could also be just a different "skin" of a monkey)

 

[Momo15]

I agree with the popular vote of bats, I'd also like to see gecko, chihuahua, llama, turtle, or fennec fox! (Off the top of my head)
