Right, because finding trees for buckets is VERY hard...
Stats =/= Learning Points. The harder it is for macro-assisted murderers to mass-produce big bear bangers, the better off we all are for it.

Animal spawn rates are fine. If you're having problems finding them, maybe you should have the stones to cruise around on a river, or walk more than two minutes from your village.

Bear spawn rate isn't fine. I see one for every 25-30 foxes/15-20 boars.

There was a bear in the middle of our town today munching on some honeybuns. That was the first one I have seen since starting.

Wow, really? I see them on average two to three times a day. That's enough for my blood pressure and my mouse. HEART POUND MOUSE CLICK OH GOD RUN

I usually sail out and get an average of 5~7 boars and 10 foxes per day, no bear...
I agree with the bear part, not with the others tho..

Yesterday I was looking for a rabbit whole day, nothing... Today while chopping some trees for my palisade I accidentally found 3 of them, within a minute. I guess its just a matter of luck.

Just came across 2 boars and 2 bears on a hunting trip earlier. Seems mostly just luck. I don't think they should be increased whilst they are still so murderous, I see enough dead new characters littering the forests as it is.

I haven't seen a bear on my last couple hunting trips, though I HAVE seen far more scrubs out in boats on the river. These border SGs are started to get crowded, might be housecleaning time ;(

I go for miles and miles up and down all the rivers anywhere near my place. even if they don't connect right to my place & its riverways.
I go inland here & there searching
I use a bow + 2 - 3 extra quivers to make sure I ALWAYS have enough ammo even after taking 1 or 2 bears down.

but I've been finding nothing.

jorb and loftar are using some leet cheats that kills all the animals in the game and gives them the LP, just for the fun of it.

That's why there are no animals.
