I haven't played this particular variant of zoo, but here are some general tips:
zoo is a board control deck, you want to clear you opponents board as best you can while maintaining yours and chip away at their health. Typically you'll burst your opponent down at the end.
Zoo is chock full of 1 and 2 drop minions. Mulligan for them.
Dont keep egg in your opening hand without an activator.
If you have a haunted creeper and knife juggler in your hand always drop the creeper first
Be aware of your win condition. In some cases it is correct to try to burst your opponent down rather than play board control.
Don't reach with implosion. You're probably not going to roll a 4, so given the choice of maybe taking out a large enemy minion or definitely taking out a smaller minion it's usually correct to take the smaller one.
Tap first, unless you have a specific demon you want to cheat into play with voidcaller. It sucks to tap into a voidwalker and have it cheated into play instead of doomguard.
General consensus seems to be no. When you're able to get value out of him, he's Dr. Boom level good. Often times though your opponent is able to play around him or silence him, effectively making him a 7/7 for 8. The fact that his effect is a death rattle and not a battle cry is really limiting.
You might play him if you have him, but I wouldn't say he's a hard requirement for the deck.
There are 33 collectible beasts already in the game and 3 more have been teased already. The 36 known beasts have an average stat distribution of 3.26 / 3.71 (or 3/4). So on average a player should receive a 3/3 and a 3/4 for 5 mana.
Compared to other top-tier 5-drops like Sludge Belcher, Azure Drake, and Loatheb it seems OK but not great. However Midrange Hunter is currently lacking in the 5 drop slot so I think this card will see play.
Can someone compile a list of all beasts? It could determine the value of this card.

How does it do against Priest? They make up a ton of the meta between 10-1.

I took this deck on a losing streak from 10-14 losing to every shaman and hunter on the way. Doesn't seem like a good deck for this meta to me.

His wording was poor, but his point is valid. 10 games is too small of a sample to judge a deck's overall win rate.

Do you have any stats you can post on the matchups? How does it fare against Midrange Hunter and Secret Paladin?

Hows flare working out for you?

Ysera is amazing and you really want a dragon in that slot. You could try Nefarian.
