Dog barks seem to be happening at random in cities. When there was a daily for petting a dog I chased down every bark I heard but in the first two cities ( Rhodes, Valentine) there was no dog to be found anywhere. Ran to where I heard the bark and then searched the entire city so I'm sure barks are random.

My guess is that it's the way they did ambient sounds? It's everything, voices, animal noises, etc. Anything within a certain distance (quite a distance at that) will all sound exactly like a person standing next to you.

So the bird in the OP could have been twenty trees away. The dogs barking in cities are a couple of blocks over, etc.

These fake ambient animal sounds are most noticable on farms.
All the corrals are completely empty, yet you can still hear them.

Story mode doesn't seem to have this problem. The ambient sounds on farms and elsewhere match the animals there. I think they've stripped back these on online (performance related at a guess) but left the ambient sounds.

I think what we'd all want in online, is the sounds to match the animals that are there, like it does in story mode, not much to ask for right?
