What mounts would you like to see in TES:O?

As I recall there was mention of mounts being included in TESO in the early video interviews. Some time afterwards I believe they spoke briefly about horses.

However, this has me wondering what other mounts we might see. After all, having only horses would feel rather limited and different regions/provinces had different means for personal transportation. Also, in Morrowind horses wouldn't last very long as the Dunmer use them for food instead of riding. ;)

This made me check through the bestiary and lore on which types of possible mounts we could have; and more importantly regional mounts depending on the province. After all, a diverse world is a rich world; right?

* Horse (lots of variety possible: Bay, Chestnut, Paint, Black, White and maybe those heavy Draft horses for the Nords)
* Guar (I mean what Dunmer wouldn't want a Guar to ride on?!)
* Slarjei (I believe it is a form of Lizard-bird used in the deserts of Elsweyr as horses don't do well there)

Next to that we have a list of creatures that could potentially be used as mounts:

* Senche
* Senche-Raht
* Durzog (and the sturdier War Durzog)
* Sabre Cat (Regular, Snowy, Vale)
* Kagouti (not too sure if these are feasible)
* Alit (not sure about this one either)
