Can't find animals... ?

Hey! Greetings players & dev team, been playing for 51 hours so far and max I've found is one wolf

Official servers

I've seen a lot of birds, one wolf, rabbit tracks, and three boar in the last few days I've played on an official server. All in the NW part of the map.

Map Location C3, Bottom Left just above the Yellow/Paved road, there is a small lake, go north of the lake, past the little cabin and you'll see the Trenches..
All around that area you'll get Bears/Boars.. It's a Bear spawn area.

Before you head there, go down to the Salt Mine, Zone Z2, snag a few bags of salt.
Then butcher the bear meat and add the salt.. Salted Meat will last a very long time.
If memory serves me well, the salted meat looses 1% per day.. Not game day, real time..

Get (3) long sticks, make a Skewer, then add (4) bear meat to it and cook near a fire, should take less than a minute to cook and yield you 10 bites of meat..

Of course you could add all the spices and oil, etc.. but in a pinch, when your starving, the meat will last a long time and supply you while looking for more ingredients..

This is just 1 spot to hunt, as there are a ton more areas, of course.. I'm just offering up 1 location and getting you fed while you loot more ingredients and such..

Bring lots of Ammo.. and GL

Hey there OP, this question comes up every so often, animals are around the map you will need to look around a bit to be able to find them.

My opinion... They seem to have a spawn radius locations in the woods of 100 to 200 meters. They spawn when you sit still in that radius for 2 to 5 min. If you keep running around they don't have a chance to spawn. Same for puppets. I would guess every woods has a spawn for animals, have seen plenty.

I'm not sure if it's Awareness or Survival, but one of them them will allow you to track animal footprints. When you hear the animal turn toward the sound, follow it, and eventually you'll see the tracks. Be ready. I've yet to see a bear, but boars and wolves are a PITA if you're unprepared. Also have room to pack your kill back to your camp. Wish I'd remember that one myself.
