You dont run Village Bell-Ringer for the infinite combo? adding creatures that tap for 1 would also be a strong play, like Gold Myr + The Jolly Balloon Man make say 10,000 balloons then play something like Village Bell-Ringer or Sparring Mummy from your hand and swing at everyone on the table. Iron Myrand Ornithopter of Paradise are other options for mana creatures.

Maybe take out Ornithopter of Paradise and put in Sakashima the Impostor in?

Food In Human Out

This is a great list but I think you need more lands and mana rocks. Also just a heads up that transforming cards like Ojer Taq cannot be played as their transformed side; you would have to play it as a creature first and transform it before using it as a land.
Personally I would make these swaps:
Second Breakfast -> Windbrisk Heights
Vizier of Deferment -> Shefet Dunes
Ajani, Inspiring Leader -> Bonders' Enclave
Transmutation Font -> Arch of Orazca
Fortifying Provisions -> Fountainport
Bill the Pony -> Minas Tirith
Drannith Magistrate -> Manakin
Flaming Fist Officer -> Hedron Crawler
Odric, Master Tactician -> Gold Myr
Oltec Matterweaver -> Ornithopter of Paradise
Syr Ginger, the Meal Ender -> Mind Stone
Thraben Doomsayer -> Coat of Arms
Gingerbrute -> White Plume Adventurer
Food Coma -> Magewright's Stone
Hobbit's Sting -> Drumbellower
Dawn Charm -> Halo Fountain

Soul Partition can exile anything and plays into your Grand Arbiter Augustin IV angle taxing them as you take resources. Speaking of taxes and resource denial... Where's the Burning Sands?
Capsize > Cyclonic Rift
I know that might be a controversial take but Rift is one and done. Capsize is forever with your mana rocks :)
Cut some of your creatures. Palladium Myr? Vesuva cloning your Ancient Tomb is better.
Big fan of Dwarven Miner for the nostalgia (started during Mirage) but Dwarven Driller is cooler and you really need mana rocks.
Ornithopter of Paradise great common but you aren't running modifications and being a creature just makes it vulnerable to removal. A mana rock would be better.
Eye of Ramos, Heart of Ramos and Tooth of Ramos have been really useful in my build.

Dark Ritual will let you cast Buried Alive turn 1 fwiw, it can also help power out some of your bigger reanimation spells, or even a Wurm in a pinch.
Ornithopter of Paradise isn't as expensive as Birds of Paradise, but it's got the same ability, and it can technically fix you a bit better since you it can give you the Green you might need.
Augur of Skulls is a real utility creature, it can chump reasonably well (as long as they don't have evasion), it can force anyone to discard 2 cards for only 1B (normally you'd pay 2B for this via Mind Rot, or perhaps Wrench Mind), you might target an opponent, but you can also use it to discard 2 cards if that's exactly what you want. There is also something like Putrid Imp that might do the same thing for only B, but it's not useful as a chump blocker.

Buttercup: Princess Bride

Sylvan Caryatid would be a solid add. I've been on the fence with Utopia Sprawl since I don't always have a forest to enchant, so I would likely replace it before I replace Ornithopter of Paradise. I like that the thopter requires no colors up front so I'm guaranteed to be able to play it with any other two mana sources.
But I'm most excited about your Nashi idea. It's two colors for Buttercup, it synergizes great with our legendary theme, it synergizes with our +1/+1 counter subtheme with Miracle Max, and it's another rat for our Rodents of Unusual Size. It's perfect! Thanks for the suggestions!

Cool deck. Personally I would make these swaps:
Dunedain Blade -> Pariah (put Pariah on Tajic and you will never take damage)
Starfield Mystic -> Unquestioned Authority (makes Tajic unblockable)
Geode Golem -> Ornithopter of Paradise (gets Tajic out a turn sooner and can help trigger his ability)
Butcher's Cleaver -> Loxodon Warhammer (strictly better)
True-Faith Censer -> Conjurer's Mantle
Heavy Mattock -> Horn of Valhalla
Commander's Authority -> Forth Eorlingas!

Animar's Wildlife Sanctuary
1 year ago
Have you considered Grinning Ignus? Great card to rebuild Animar with if he gets removed. Could even add in Birgi, God of Storytelling Flip for free red mana. Plus, infinite combo. And using Vizier, you already would have an infinite mana combo with Grinning and Animar. Add in Urza, Lord High Artificer and now you cast your whole deck. Add in Altar of the Brood and you can just mill everyone and pass turn for wins.
In general though, Grinning Ignus should be an Animar staple. He rebuilds Animar so fas and lets himself be recast for almost free. Plus once Animar gets 2 counters, you start generating free colorless mana. Which, with Vizier, lets you start casting more things.
Also consider Ornithopter of Paradise. Same thing as Birds but it’s colorless so free casting with Animar and free counters.
