I'm working on a comic with a heavy use of underused animals, and would like to know which animals you would like to see be used in media. I've already used a few species that I haven't seen in media already
such as
- Lowland Streaked Tenrec
- Serval
- Makhor
- Gemsbok
- Australian Ghost Shark
- Red River Hog
- Double Wattled Cassoway
- Nautilus
- Greater Galgo
- Sunda Slow Loris
- Tawny Frogmouth
- Secretary Bird
- East African Crowned Crane
- Goblin Shark
- Frilled Shark
- Giant Isopod
- Red Panda
- Demoiselle Crane
- Burrowing Owl
- Chinese Pangolin
And a few others
 
Sea louse
Wrinkle-faced bat
Madagascan tassel-nosed snake
Bornean bristlehead
Ajotle
Dassie rat
Monito de monte
Shrew opossum
Tube-nosed bat
Tardigrade
Giraffe-necked weevil
Placozoan
 
If you publish your comic, it's gonna be a treasure trove here: Seldom-Seen Species - TV Tropes :p

Some obscure birds that I'd like to see in fiction:
- Cock-of-the-rock (any species)
- Golden-headed quetzal
- Spur-winged goose
- Northern gannet
Thank you for showing me the site, and I will work on adding these bird species
Seeing as I haven't used any fish species that breath air yet, this will be a species that I plan to use heavily
 
It is a bit late for me to tell you this but while servals are underused, they might be receiving popularity among anime fans because of the anime kemono friends.

I never hear brushtail possums and any species of turaco receive enough attention.
 
The following animals on this thread I have seen in media:

Lowland Streaked Tenrec (The recent Netflix series All Hail King Julien)
Red Panda (The Kung Fu Panda series)
Burrowing Owl (The great book - and later movie - Hoot)
 
I now have a few of these animals planned, the current ones I am working to make characters of are
- Lungfish
- Bornean Bristlehead
- Tardigrade
- Andean Cock-of-The-Rock
- Spur Winged Goose
- Northern Gannet
- Sungrebe
- Hagfish
- Bulldog Bat
- Common Brushtail Possum
- Great Blue Turaco
- Mountain Bongo
These are the animals I'm currently working on, along with two animals I decided to add, Giant Sable Antelope and Gelada. I might also use the other animals requested I'm just not planning on developing them right now, I still want to see what other animals all of you would like to see.

When you create your comic, make sure to give us a link ;)
 
I have competed work on a few of the animals designs, the animals that I have currently completed are,
-Bornean Bristlehead
-Andean Cock-of-the-Rock
-Common Brushtail Possum
-Mountain Bongo
also sorry for not updating this in a while, I've been having trouble with thinking of good natural ways of inserting these animals for my WIP comic series
