As someone who likes more challenging maps, the current state of [EVIL] locations is a bit of a crapshoot.  Sometimes I'm swarmed with beak dogs and harpies, sometimes nothing spawns but skeletal deer.  

If one of the tab windows in the embark menu could quickly run through and display valid animals for that location, it'd be very useful in consistently picking entertaining maps.  It would also serve as a tool for verifying that custom animals are imported correctly.

Seconded.

There should really be more wildlife in general, a setting maybe? That way one whit a crappy system could play whiteout them and another wanting a challenge could set it to something ridiculous and get 93 giant scorpions spawned on startup even in a desert.

I'll put my name on this one too.  I would really like to know what animals I am going to encounter when I pick a spot.  Sometimes I just want deer, and sometimes I want hell raining down on me.

This makes sense to me.  After all, it tells you what the stone layers are like before you go, the theoretical reconnaissance could take a glance around and see the skeletal carp or what have you.
