Animals No Longer At Your Zoo You'd Like To See There Again

I like to see

Cincinnati Zoo:

Zebra Duiker
Asian Golden Cat
Rusty Spotted Cat
Margay

Bronx Zoo:

Proboscis Monkey
Wisent
Black Gnu

San Diego Zoo:

Dwarf Cassowary
 
A couple of years ago, Los Angeles exhibited a small group of Pygmy Marmosets for what I believe was the first time here. Then they disappeared again and I don't know why. I was just starting to enjoy them and hope to see them back again someday.
 
I'd like to see these animals return to Milwaukee County Zoo:

Indian Rhinoceros
Capybara
Caracal

These species were exhibited at the zoo in the past as well:

Cougar
Asian Elephant
White Rhinoceros
Asian Small-Clawed Otter
Striped Hyena
Bengal Tiger (white)
Blackbuck
Wolverine
North American Porcupine
Koala
Arctic Wolf
Proboscis Monkey
Coquerel's Sifaka*

*Because one is featured on the wood sign outside of the Small Mammals Building, the zoo must have had them at some point, but I don't know for sure.

Oh yeah, I''d like to see Broad-Snouted Caimans, Virginia Opossums, Reindeer, and Cougars come back to Beardsley. There are so many other animals used to be exhibited, but I think that was before the zoo earned AZA accreditation, and before I was born.

Also King Vultures.

When did Oakland exhibit polar bears? Or spectacled bears for that matter?
 
@reduakari

i think it was back in the 1980s when oakland was listed as one of the worst american zoos, but i am not exactly sure, i know there animal collection used to be a lot bigger
 
With the last impala in Toronto having passed away in December, I would like to see a herd of them at the Toronto again, and/or for the Thomson's Gazelle to be brought back (expand if the current enclosure would be too small with the two species combined plus the Kudo and bird species?). Shame to see North America's herds of hooved stock dissipating, maybe this could be a boost.

And while I'm in the savannah section there, not only for the elephants to stay; but more could be brought in and a new, bigger enclosure to accommodate them all (plus a bachlor group of males).

I could be wrong but I don't think that Santa Barbara has ever had zebras, hippos, orangs, or chimps. Where are you getting this info?

They did have fruit bats, Geoffery's cats, slow loris (all of these in former nocturnal house which is now Ewwwwww!), black-tailed prairie dogs, pink-toed tarantulas, a beaver, an American badger, mountain lions, tigers, clouded leopards, black and white ruffed lemurs, ring-tailed lemurs, and spectacled langurs.
