species suggestions, please!

General
So, I decided that I want to enter a couple of pieces into the art show of RMFC next year, August.
I was thinking of buying 3 - 5 small canvases and painting a variety of feral animals on them, probably surrounded by trees or grass or other nature scenes.
I realize that foxes, wolves, and big cats are very popular among furries, but I'm not trying to make a profit here, I'm trying to provide more variety of species to the art show and get some practice with acrylics as well. I would prefer to play to my strengths and paint feral, real-world animals with natural colorations.
What are your suggestions? Feel free to pile them on me, I'm open to anything at the moment ~

Birds are cool, I kinda suck at them, but I dig hornbills, toucans, and the really smart birds like parrots
opossums? no idea how popular those are
pigs? i never see pigs, i love pigs
prairie dogs!?
i dunno, just kinda random things that popped into my head that i haven't seen a lot around here
there's also some really cool pig species like red river hogs that never get any attention
And platypus. Maybe a pangolin.
Maybe other large, insectivorous mammals? Aardwolf, aardvark, tamandua, echidna...
they are the cutest things!
Sand cats, corgis, rainbow lorikeets, macaws, ... It's too early for me in the morning to think of other breeds <.<;;
