Hunting

Could someone point me to a source of information regarding the future implementation of the hunting profession?
The current state, where you are forced to find special animals that do not move and pet them (press F to hunt) is ridiculously repulsive.
I hope that some change is planned, where hunting and subsequent skinning will be applied to any, even aggressive, animals. For example, in a way where a special skill is applied to the animal after reducing its life to a certain level, which subsequently allows taming or skinning.

I would like to be able to attempt to skin every animals. I think if you 'hunt' the animal you should get a better chance at a skin/meat/materials. But if you just attack and kill it then you get a much much lower chance. If you're hunting/skinning skill is too low you just fail.
They need to add in trapping for this too, for taming. Maybe for taming too you can get close and pet it try to tame it, but just have it run away (reset) if you fail, not die... Then people can go a more passive route for hunting if they want.
I'd have to guess no one on the team has ever harvested game.
Excited to check out the new fishing stuff, I hope hunting, farming, breeding, all follow the same route. If they do then the game will a solid life skills loop. It'd be cool to see some innovation on gathering skills like mining and flower picking too. Those are less interesting to me though.
