Mod Suggestion: Quieter Animals

[weesnaw 3]

A mod that lets you make certain animals not vocalize as frequently (or at all) would be neat, if doable. Elk almost constantly scream when they're spawned in, dogs in towns are almost always barking, wolves are a LOT more quiet in real life than in-game (why do they viciously bark all the time like dogs??), cougars are some of the stealthiest predators in real life but yowl and scream the moment you're in range, foxes merely existing = noise radiating from them.

 

A mod that either makes these more rare or even completely silences the "normal" vocalizations of these animals (i.e completely silencing wolves' weird constant barking) would benefit hunting and immersive gameplay, imo. I've never been ambushed/snuck up on by any of the predators in the game, nor has it ever been even a slight challenge to spot/hunt a fox when every step they take is punctuated by barks. With how much hunting was built up in the first act, I wish there was more of a requirement for paying attention instead of listening to the animals' screaming and chasing them.
