Actually the safest theme. Other popular themes, such as ninjas, cars and dinosaurs, are still more fan themes. I mean, even in a group of friends, not everyone will enthusiastically talk about ninjas. The original spy/military motif is even more so. It's better to try something new in the post-anniversary year (especially since it already seems to me that the celebration will drag on for two seasons). In other hand everyone loves animals, even if some only love them on video and/or in toy form. Even the two recent super-popular Sentai that stopped the decline in sales are technically animal themed Sentai. So there is definitely logic in this choice.
