Animals you have never seen before?

Title says all.

Strangely, I've never seen live giant pandas, okapis, cassowaries, nor even a living red fox (though of course I've seen pelts and etc.)

Same with skunks and opposums, though I see roadkill lying on the side of the road. To be honest, I think that's crazy, me never seeing some quite common native fauna.

So you mean in RL? xD

Well lots of animals... fortunally i've seen okapis :3

I would like to see giant and red pandas some day. A harpy or phillipine eagle are another "must see" in my list, as well as manta rays, orangutans, whale sharks and orcas. I've never seen any of those but i would love to.

Never ever have I seen a wild boar. In zoos, yeah, but that doesn't count. Same goes for foxes and rats.

Excluding all those kinds of animals that I'd see in zoos only ?

A living wels catfish up close (saw only a dead one and a small one caught by a fisher in the distance), loaches, south-european nasen, wild adders (saw one in a zoo only), wild red deer (saw one in a semi-wild condition in a hunting reserve), wild porcupine (saw only in zoos), tiger salamanders, sharks of any kind, italian wolf, alpine ibex and alpine marmot.

I've never actually seen snow leopards either. I mean, I've seen an exhibit before, yet they were not out.

And yes it can be both zoos and in the wild. :P

I also haven't seen a sun bear yet, either.

You are a lucky man, JMT. xD

I've also never seen lowland anoas or even red river hogs. I really want to see some.

I've already seen arctic foxes, fennecs, and a sloth bear up close. It was resting right next to the glass, you could even feel it's body temperature right through the glass xD

I can't believe you've never seen a snow leopard! They are so beautiful!
I also see red foxes daily. There are so many around here :)

I've never seen an okapi, and I've always wanted to see one!

I really want to, but never seen Giant pandas (though I have seen red pandas), proboscis monkeys, whales, okapis, cassowaries, Komodo dragons, and maybe some more, not even seen any of them in a zoo.

Animals in my own country I would love to see in the wild are wild boars, badgers and Heck cattle (a cow species that is introduced in a park in the Netherlands)

I saw an okapi in Disney's Animal Kingdom. I was so happy :3

And there are no snowleopards in any zoo in my country unfortunally :/

I also would love to see Komodo Dragons!

I saw the okapi in the zoo once, it was a donation, and went away to Africa after an year in our zoo. Her name was Sarangini. :)

And I want to see the snow leopard once more, because when i saw it, it was in his exhibit far away and I took only one photograph of it, expecting that I will click it again when it comes closer :'(
