Does leaving meat on a carcass affect respawn times?

[piddy3825]

I was wondering if leaving the odd portion of meat on carcass affects re-spawn rates, especially in wolves?

I have been leaving the odd portion of meat on most of my harvests lately mainly because the cook times are fixed, (takes the same time to cook 1 kg as it does .20kg), currently playing a voyager mode game, so there are a few rabbit, deer and wolf carcass's scattered about the Ice between the Quonset Gas Station and Jack Rabbit Island out on the CH. On a few of the previous threads I read, there have been discussions about wolf spawn locations and rates, and even a few theories about wolf behavior mechanics, but not much about re-spawn times etc. Any ideas?

If it does effect respawn times I'd like to know as well. The wolf population near Quonset is dwindling for me and I'd like some way of getting it back up. Hoping I didn't depopulate the area, that wouldn't be fun.

Well I don't know for absolutely sure that it impacts the REspawn Timer...

But it definitally has influence on the DEspawn Timer!

Harvesting a carcass has had no noticeable impact on respawns for me.

Number of animals killed however, does.
