• Bear- Think this tame is in a good place maybe less damage from a balance perspective.
• Chicken- mechanically in a good place. Would say change the males model to a rooster.
• Cow- nothing i would change.
• Bull-i like the above stated suggestions of making the cargo saddle an actual cargo cart. Otherwise maybe some increase to thatch gathering. Something needs to be added because unless you are breeding this tame is pretty much useless.
• Crow- Like where this tame is.
• Razortooth- haven't tamed so no comment.
• Shieldhorn- haven't tamed so no comment.
• Elephant- Stamina has been increased but even before that i was happy with where they were at.
• Giant Pig- Pretty good the force poop helps our farmers out a lot.
• Giraffe- after the patch notes i will be quite happy with this tame. We had been forgoing taming these as they would have just taken up room in our barn.
• Horse- Change their AI around to avoid water more often. Passive taming wouldn't be horrible but we tame these fairly easily without. Cart would be nice for multiple tames and hauling.
• Lion- need to have some kind of durability maybe some dodge mechanic or a pounce that stuns. The bite attack doesn't work in PvE official as far as i have been able to see. Maybe add that back in to the game otherwise the tiger outshines this mount.
• Monkey- pretty happy with the monkey.
• Ostrich- pretty happy with these. They are the all around best scouting mount that i have seen.
• Parrot- Some of the above suggestions for these would not be bad. Warning system or a homing message sender. Otherwise good as the are.
• Penguin- WE gave a couple of these but they are mostly for those that find them cute. Maybe change it so that if placed on wander and someone nearby is cold player or baby they immediately walk over and give them the fortitude buff.
• Rabbit- Pretty useless tame from what i can see. Cant think of any real use for them sadly.
• Rhino- Pretty happy with them after the newest patch. Gathering metal from rocks would be a great addition to their usefulness. They need a better turn base because it is atrocious.
• Seagull- haven't tamed so no comment.
• Sheep- Fairly useless tame i mean hide is so easy to come by for almost all regions. I would change the wool from hide to its own item which can be converted to fiber in the loom.
• Tiger- Pretty happy with these so far i haven't had a lot of experience just found some recently and was able to tame them. My company members that have used them are very happy with them.
• Vulture- haven't tamed so no comment.
• Wolf - they need a buff overall i think the main issue wasn't their power level but their spawn rate which is in a good place IMO. I would give them their attack power back because right now they are fairly useless tames. Or if not add the previously mentioned pack buff up to a maximum amount so only so many wolves will stack.

Other than that i think most of the tames are in good places. I cant wait for the giant crab and whatever else you add in for the game. I would like to see more aquatic tames.

Are animal spawn timers working properly? Is this how you intended the islands to be populated or are they increased due to launch and you anticipating the large need for resources to be available? If they are increased when can we expect them to be reduced? 

Are you planning to do anything with Alphas? 

Any new items that you are planning on releasing? Specifically anything for taming? For example bait and or 1 use or multiple use traps would be awesome especially to remove clutter from claims and give people more space to build. Would also allow people to tame on areas they don't own without having to build a taming enclosure and not risk alphas taking out their bola'd animals.

For the larger ships instead of planks some kind of drawbridge gate that you could lower and raise so you could put tames belowdeck. 

Any plans on increasing the storage space for certain items like preserving bags? They are fairly limited on something that is fairly important  or a big deal on ships but farmers are having to place 4-5 just to store what they grow. 

Hope you have some info on these items. Look forward to hearing about you plans for the future of this game.
