With the rotation of Onslaught, Zoo is likely going to become harder to build. It'll be difficult to balance the number of basics in addition to Ravnica duals to power up Kird Ape and Kitteh.
Please post lists aplenty.

I'm not sure a proper list is possible with this point, especially since us zoo players are awaiting the spoilage of the new lands in m10, but I'm extremely confident RGW will still be really good.

I agree with evilweevil. The addition of shocklands alone will sustain the archetype; Kird Ape will still be a 2/3 and Wild Nacatl will still be a 3/3.
I'm really hoping fetch lands of some sort will be printed in Zendikar, though. *fingers crossed*

23 Land
4 Stomping Ground
4 Temple Garden
4 Sacred Foundry
4 Mountain
4 Plains
3 Forest
Creatures
4 Wild Nacatl
4 Kird Ape
4 Tarmogoyf
3-4 Keldon Marauders/Teeg/Canonist/Pridemage
4 Wooly Thoctar
3 Ranger of Eos
Other Spells
4 Lightning Helix
4 Incinerate
4 Path to Exile
2-3 Umezawa's Jitte
It's hard to make a good list without knowing the metagame or the new lands, but this seems to be a decent starting point.

How's this looking: 23 x Creatures  4 x Wild Nacatl  4 x Kird Ape  4 x Mogg Fanatic  4 x Tarmogoyf  3 x Qasali Pridemage  4 x Woolly Thoctar  15 x Other  4 x Lightning Helix  4 x Incinerate  4 x Path to Exile  3 x Umezawa's Jitte  22 x Land  4 x Sacred Foundry  4 x Stomping Ground  4 x Temple Garden  4 x Montain  3 x Forest  3 x Plains  It's partly built around Jitte, so I didn't use Keldon Marauders since it doesn't stay in play. I instead went with Qasali Pridemage since the deck couldn't destroy artifacts and enchantments (admitedly, Pridemage won't stay around forever). For that reason I'm not entirely sold on Mogg Fanatic. I had considered either taking them out and putting in 3 Figure of Destiny  and an extra land or replacing them with Isamaru  .

Mogg Fanatic probably won't be very good after rotation (though we can't know for sure); the only reason it was played this season was Elves.
You should probably have some Ranger of Eos in there.

What about Terramorphic Expanse  as a 4-of? Land Wild Nacatl on turn 1, then fetch a Mountain  or Plains on turn 2 to swing for 2 or 3 damage (if shock land was thrown turn 1). ...and it thins the deck, plus feeds 'Goyf. Thoughts?

Don't think the little bit more damage is going to be worth the tempo loss. So maybe Panoramas as like a 2-3 of?
I do hope this is a joke.

I personally don't think that Zoo will be all that competitive post-rotation.
