Rant post about wildlife

Booted up STW and the one thing I was hoping for since March was a wildlife update… still nothing… after 6 1/2 months… Epic, you need to realize how detrimental wildlife is to this game, and do something fast. The amount of wildlife spawns and their noises are still driving me insane, they're still wasting my trap durability, and all the problems we've been wanting fixed are still here. And what's worse is that all the good problems we have with wildlife are the only ones getting any attention. Before the update I was barely getting bothered by the noises because they either weren't playing or cutting out, now I'm getting earraped every 2 seconds by a wolf howling halfway across the map again.

The whole wildlife idea was a failure, and I don't understand why they keep trying to push it. Dinosaurs, chickens, boars, everything is totally off theme, and makes me feel like I'm playing a child's game, or whatever br has turned into. Irrelevant stuff in italics – The battle passes have gotten progressively worse every season (this is the first ever battle pass I'm refusing to buy), gameplay has gotten much shittier… all of this is my opinion, but I'm sure it's shared with a lot of people, so I don't want this kind of stuff polluting STW. What exactly are you working on so I know if I'll be satisfied? When can we expect a change? I don't want to keep playing if I won't receive any recognition from epic. And I know I am no one significant, but I still feel completely left out in the game I've been playing for over a quarter of my life, and I won't continue to play if this continues for much longer. I would've chosen to be left in a dry state of no content rather than have wildlife added, even if it was tolerable. There's nothing pushing me to use a wildlife hero or loadout, and there never will be. I won't be surprised if wildlife loadouts are never used even if they're fixed.

TL;DR

Epic, I get you've worked for a long time on this and I get you don't want your time wasted, but you're wasting time trying to fix something that's impossible or extremely hard to fix. So what can we expect, when can we expect it, and will I be satisfied with it? Because if dinosaurs, chickens, etc. still exist in the "finalized wildlife update" I just simply won't deal with it. After dealing with wildlife for 6 1/2 months, I get sick of just seeing them.
