A lot of art for season 2 shows Kaban and co. in their Japari boat which suggests that they will be in the sea for a good while. It would also make for some cabin fever jokes and Serval hallucinating that Kaban is a Japari bun.

[[WMG: There will be new Friends in future installments, species not featured in the game.]]
As the JRA X Kemono Friends collaboration just created three new horse Friends that are exclusive only to the anime. And since the series has become very popular, there are now opportunities for more never-before-seen Friends to be made. New animals such as orcas, toucans, parrots, and even more extinct animals like non-avian dinosaurs and pterosaurs.

It takes place ''long'' before the events of the latter, the Friends are the ancestors of the Fauna, the existence of Dust is due to The Sand Star's influence on the land, and the Cerelions will eventually (whether naturally or not) evolve into the Creatures of Grim.

Kaban is the only human friend in the show and quite possibly the world and an outsider to the Friend's society. But over time as she helps solve problems, save people, and end conflicts, Kaban gains the respect and admiration of the locals. Hippo's appearances and words in episode's 1 and 12 said it best when dealing with Kaban's influence in that she unified a scattered civilization and managed to help it reclaim it's lost past. Even sacrificing her escape from the park to help the friends defeat the black Cerulean an unstoppable beast that nobody else could beat alone. Reject orders and face death when she was told by the administration to evacuate. Something not even Mirai was willing to do at the end all the while expecting nothing in return. And in the end after her journey was done Kaban left to return to her homeland.

When Mirai left the park, she essentially left everyone behind. This would seem like pretty heartless thing to do unless it was for a good reason. This would also make sense with the above theory that past!Serval and present!Serval are one and the same.

* Serval was reverted to an normal animal by a Cerulean, but was again exposed to Sandstar and turned into her LittleBitBeastly form. She has lost most of her memories from her time as an human, but something remained deep in her subconscious and surfaced again when she saw Mirai's hologram and remembered the sadness about her death, disappearance or departure.

* Judging from the manga, this seems to be the case with many of them; like Red Fox. Maybe Tsuchinoko never reverted, as she makes comments regarding the park's original purpose; but she's too much of a {{Hikikomori}} and {{Tsundere}} to properly communicate.

Serval cried when shown Mirai's message. And Mirai's Serval acts way too much like Kaban's Serval. So it's likely that Serval was injured or even died and revived and was never found by the humans. Serval without any memories went back to the savannah area and spent years as a normal friend before meeting Kaban-chan.
