BUG with aiming and wolf attacks

Since the latest update I have noticed a bug. If it is important, I use a controller for play, and I have been playing The Long Dark since the beginning. 

If I am mauled by a wolf while having an arrow nocked in the bow, the bow becomes unequipped (as usual) and I engage in a wolf struggle. However, after the struggle my movement speed is reduced as if I am still holding the arrow. I am able to fix this by pulling out the rifle (which is already aiming down the sights) and pulling and releasing the left trigger. 

If there is a better place to report suspected bugs please let me know.

To expand on the impact of this bug, it's very common to get a sprain while attacked by a wolf. It happened to me today, and I happened to be out of medicine. It was a hand sprain, so I couldn't even equip a weapon to fix the bug. I had to hobble all the way back to my base to fix it. Pretty annoying when it zooms in your camera during the bug and vastly reduces your movement speed. 

It was comical anyway. I hope this bug gets some attention.
