Change it to the correct snowclone? I am in this boat.

Good Animals, Evil Animals would be much easier to understand.

Good Animals, Evil Animals sounds good to me, although I was sure we had something kind of like that somewhere.

Animal Stereotypes is pretty similar. This trope may be wholly unnecessary.
Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.
While this does cover different territory from Animal Stereotypes, we could easily merge it in there.
However, I think this is an important enough element to subtrope rather than merge. Most of the Animal Stereotypes stuff is talking about personality traits related to species, where this trope is talking about who is likely to show up as a hero or villain.
I also think this trope is one of those where aversions are particularly interesting, like Kung Fu Panda 2 flipping the usual species stereotypes to have heroic (if hard-headed) bulls, crocodiles, and rhinos, and an evil peacock.

Other suggestions about what's going to be done about this trope?

I can't think of any, so crowner time.
You can't touch this. (oh-oh oh oh-oh-oh)
Break it down.
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh)
Stop. Crowner time.

People agree with the rename Good Animals, Evil Animals more than the other three options.
Having worked earlier on Reptiles Are Abhorrent, I don't see this as identical to Animal Stereotypes. I see this as using character species as a sort of shorthand communication that quickly tells the audience what to expect from a character in terms of being evil or good. It's more like a specific usage of Animal Stereotypes. I also see Reptiles Are Abhorrent as a sister trope.
Good Animals, Evil Animals is a good name. It fits with Good Colors, Evil Colors and Good Wings, Evil Wings, which are also about using visual shorthand on character designs.

Calling the crowner as requested.
Rename is done. Apropos, why was this moved to the morgue? Misclick?

What would be the best way to fix the page?
This is a terrible snowclone of Color-Coded for Your Convenience, and it's about to create another terrible snowclone off this snowclone in YKTTW
.
It has nothing at all to do with the trope it's snowcloned off of. I can only guess it was created back when Color-Coded for Your Convenience was the trope now named Good Colors, Evil Colors. At least, I hope that's the case. But either way, it doesn't work now.
It's also underperforming, with only 22 wicks after 3 years.
I would suggest we rename this to Good Animals, Evil Animals or something similar.
