Help with in-game glitch!

[SpectroDecibels]

Okay, so I'm on the second Tensay the Hunter mission, the Beast Master one where you have to find the wolf and tame it, but there seems to be a bug/glitch in the game that prevents progress through the mission.

I've followed walkthroughs and watched videos of the plahythroughs on YouTube, but I keep failing the mission for "leaving mission area".

I go to the hunter's camp where the hunter dudes are chilling by the fire, I kill them and progress towards a tree with spears stuck in it, and continue up the hill, following the trail of blood. I know the wolf cave is just beyond this hill, as I've used my owl to spot it. But every time I try to get close, I get a warning saying I'm leaving mission territory and I need to return or fail the mission.

I've uninstalled the game and re-installed it, I've closed out of the game and booted it back up, I've tried returning to the main camp and then travelling back again to the mission area, but NOTHING works. I have not played through much of the game so far, but I am quite disappointed.

If this issue cannot be fixed, I'll just refund it. Any help is appreciated.

You have to craft a bait before you leave the hunter's camp (you have several pieces of meat lying around there if you don't have any with you). Only then you get new mission objective marker on the map (wolves den).

Must have missed that one. Will try it out

You have to pay attention to the messages in the upper left corner of the screen during a mission. Look at 3:00 minutes mark in this video:
