Oooh, I didn't know it had one of those, the documentation can be 
so hard to read sometimes.

Try this then:

auto randomAnimal = uniform!Animals();


The enum E there is a compile time argument, so you need the ! in 
there to pass them. (uniform(Animal) would be trying to send it 
as a run time argument which doesn't work for types)
