i've noticed that on the snowy regions of the map it is hard to see the paths and back track. even when looking on the mini map.
I'm thinking that there should be a toggle that would enable a red line or blue line or whatever color you want to track behind you on the radar screen in the bottom right corner of your screen. I know it is already done on the main map when you hit "M", but something on your radar would be a lot more helpful.
also i think the animal collectors should give money or items for your charmed animals. It's kind of a waste to level an animal up so high, then turn him in for no reward. I think the amount of money or quality of the item should be based on the rarity of the animal as well as the level.
