I’ve found that biome is very important for animals. I’ve mostly found big animals in the forest. When I was previously in the snow and desert biomes, I found very few large meat animals, which left me feeling short on food all of the time.I've seen plenty of buzzards, a couple chickens, 1 boar and 1 deer.
Without zombies to skin, the only source of bones is roadkill or animals, and roadkill doesn't yield much.
