[WIP] First Zoo! (Tropical, Central-South American)

I was struggling to figure out which theme of a zoo I wanted to build. After trying savannah, temperate, and even trying arctic, I settled for a tropical, Central and South American theme, heavily inspired by a few small towns in Puerto Rico, Mexico, Guatemala, and Brazil. I used some real-life references, as well as exploring myself, through Puerto Rico.
Each photo has a caption, telling you what you're looking at.

The idea behind the zoo is that it was a small town nestled in the rainforests and mountains, and they banded together to create a zoo to help bring interest and money into the town, and to help warn and advise against the rampant deforestation, pollution, and increasing urban expanse of the island. That is why where are some "houses" scattered around the zoo.

Any animal recommendations. Doesn't have to be a central or south American animal, obviously! Just something unique, and fun!
(Please, I'm out of ideas...)
Any other comments, or ideas, or even references for buildings to be added next, let me know! The think tank is running dry...
