Animal Tracking doesn't track the dead body.

[Wacky Wizard]

Why does the Animal Tracking skill stop tracking an animal once its dead? why doesn't it keep tracking until the body is removed or change colour to show its dead. there's a dead body with blood leading to it. it should be easier for your character to find.

It's really frustrating when you hunt down a rabbit or chicken just for a zombie to dive at it, so you kill the zombie to save your hunt just so you can loss where it was. When they die under a bush (or even grass) or roll down a hill as you kill the zombie, they can take persicos time to find and sometimes have to give them up.

Typical case of git gut. You have to do some work, not spoonfeed you the flesh.

is this English or some country specific jargon. I don't quite understand it. being able to track the body is not "spoonfeed"ing anything.
You still have to hunt the animal, kill it, protect it harvest it. but losing it because it's hard to see or the "dead body" has moved when you have the ability to track it in the first place is just stupid.
