Ideas for Glorious Mounts and Creatures

Hello Everyone
I thought that I'd be nice for us to have a Section where we could share Ideas for what we think could make for glorious Mounts and Creatures.
How about a A Squirrel Mount for the Py'Rai?
After looking at some of the Py'Rai Architecture Concepts, which is very much one with nature and trees, I thought, "wouldn't it be great to have a squirrel mount?" With all those big trees out there on which you can build houses, some of these trees surely have big nuts too, and it just makes sense to me, that there would be a creature out there that really wants to munch on these nuts - Giant Squirrels.
I also noticed that I've not seen any Wild Pigs in Verra yet, so how about a (Battle Trained) Wild Boar Mount with some neat fur markings? I think that could be awesome!
Look at this glorious wild pig! It's so fluffy!

for alpha i would like to see and test one of the glideing mounts
Big rat, big furret, capybara, elephant, hippo, panda, moose (pls).
Big salamander (swim based), big lizard (quick on land, though there are waterwalking ones that speed up and walk on top of water, could be cool.)
It is likely that many of the in-game creatures are derived off typical mythical beasts or real animals so we can just think about animals that would make good mounts right.
It would be pretty awesome to have a badass looking Walking Throne as a Mount.
Would also love a skeleton steed with black plate armour on it.... or better, dyeable armour.
reminds me of the golems planned for sieges where Steven mentioned you'd be able to sit in a cavity when controlling it.
Instant flash back of Krang from TMNT inside his robot creations. lol
I would be willing to accept a compromise with a slightly violent-looking rabbit like the Hopping Gnashers currently in the game, but it's gotta be fluffy.
So yeah, all I want in life is some form of fox (not green pls) so I can get distracted by cute yips
The Penguin's specialty could be, that it can slide down slopes on its belly - like hills and mountainsides as an example, and you can gain some pretty decent speed on those.
You may be able to use the speed you've gained, and channel it into a mount combat ability to slam into creatures or players, and cause some crowd control effects and damage.
This Mount could potentially be amazing on specific locations that for ambushes. Players would have to think more about the Environment they are in, and try to use it to their advantage.
The ability to slide down hills and mountains on the penguins belly could also be part of some really fun mount races.
Fits the necro feel of this thread.
Then add some armor.
Then turn it into a mount-component and tug it onto a caravan.
A heavy-armored-demonic-hellboar chariot! \o/
Now, go rollover all those filthy player-bandits and deliver my goods safely!! \o/
I really want a mount that I stand on when mounted instead of siting
