Nah the blood dispersed in the thousands of liters of water around him so it's gone, it's easy to prevent his flee so this is totally on you anyway...

Re: Whales should leave a trail of bloody water when fleeing
Dragging it to shore and blocking it is too much effort.
If you mean deaggroing/reaggroing, I did like 4 times but it kept fleeing, like the AI seemingly randomly does sometimes.
It MIGHT be a tad unrealistic that a bleeding whale would leave a noticeable blood trail, but I'd argue it's also unrealistic that you can only see like 40 yards away from you in clear weather on the ocean.

Also add sharks that will come when this occurs.

On a similar note, wouldn't mind seeing a more indepth tracking system for the whale to indicate on is around in the area. Something like foam or birds giving away its trail.

Not sure they should be easier than they are.
