Please add an injured animal indicator.

Animal survived. Cool ok so not every shot makes its mark especially when bow hunting. But when the herd spooks, I have no idea which one was hit. Sometimes I harvest an animal many hours later to find an old shot or arrow in the xray. Which I think is pretty cool. But as the game drives ethical no suffering hunting it really misses the mark with not showing which animal was previously hit but survived.

I notice in WOTH2 there is a written description of the animal, status, called, alert noise heard etc. Please add injured or some other kind of indicator. TYVM

Men of the UK, how often do you get called, Sir?

Women, of the UK how often do you get called, Madam?

​

It's been brought to my attention that I get called Sir more than usual. I dismissed that claim, bc I'm not even sure what the usual is.

​

I get called sir, by my work peers and managers. Waiting staff, delivery drives, most service people tbh. Doesn't everyone?

​

I'm a tall middle aged white male. Does that make a difference?

​

Any insight would be awesome.

Decoy duck pond and Iron Age Fort: Borough Fen

I thought some of you might find this interesting. The star shaped pond is a duck decoy pond, with 8 "pipes"; each pipe would be covered, and ducks landing in the centre would be funnelled into the pipes by dogs or food lure. This type of pond could harvest hundreds of ducks in one go, which were then sold for general consumption.

This image has an Iron Age fort nearby for a bonus!
