Escaping from animals with trees

We should be able to run away from animals by climbing to trees. Some animals would follow you to the tree, some not.

Because most of animals (IRL) that can't climb trees, must be aggroed by the player and they deserve to suffer for their mistakes.
+it won't work if You can fight with palisade/cliff and other stuff between You and animal.

Well yeah, how You expect it not to be shitty if idea is shitty? Why would You be able to cheat the system by attacking a fox and then getting back and repeating?
Boar won't reach You but You can out run it. Beaver as well. You should pay for your mistakes, not have a more ways to cheat yourself out of it!

Climbing to trees to escape from animals would be a fun addition to the game.

Guess what idea just came to my mind! Good thing that we have search-function.

Animals wouldn't stop aggro even if you climbed a tree, but you could send call out to your mates to come save you.
Climbing trees could even protect you from players, but not ranged combat. If tree is chopped down while you have climbed in it, you will get KO'd.

You can only climb fully grown trees.

It is important to get this change in before the reset, so we can look at funny pictures of poor hearthlings hanging in trees with boars below!
