Hunting with Poisoned Arrows/Bolts?

will it make the Meat of the hunted Animal Poisoned as well?

According to my observations, the meat will not become poisoned. I have hunted many times with poisoned arrows, then smoked them and consumed them, but there was no poisoning effect.

Historically there are poisons you could hunt with that didn't "flavour" the meat but none of them in this game are good for that.

Something you do when hunting larger game is use a specific arrowhead that leaves larger wounds and the game's thought of them as well they're called "wounding arrows", as long as you hit it centre mass you can chase after it and it won't run as fast and bleed out. Harsher for the animal but cleaner than resorting to poisons or damaging it too much with more powerful weapons
