This bug has been forwarded to the admin team.

What gameplay feature is this bug affecting?
Quests done with Snake Scent

What's the issue? Please include any error messages you receive and as much detail as possible.
Snake Scent does not help me find Masai Warriors in Waterhole. Neither does killing one count towards the quest.

Any links relating to this bug? For example, if a particular lion is bugging, what is the link to that lion?
-none-

Any screenshots you can provide us with?
I do not think I need one.

Please provide us with step by step explanation how this bug happened so we can attempt to replicate it. If it's complex, please include screenshots where possible:

I got this quest from the Snake:

"Slay as many masai warriors as you can, and then come back to me for your reward..."

So I activated my Snake Scent to find them easier and went to the Waterhole to find them.
The green 'Snake Scent is currently active' writing is above my explore window but it does not help me find the Masai warriors.
With 100 energy, I found none, even with the Snake Scent.
Once I found a single one and beat it, it did not count towards the quest.

I seem to be having the same problem with Hippos. Quest (started today): "Slay as many hippos as you can, and then come back to me for your reward..." I'm using Snake Scent, I have the green message about it in Explore. A few different things seem to be wrong:

1) I beat a couple of hippos earlier today, but this did not count toward my quest - Snake still says "You have slain 0 hippos so far."

2) I've been Exploring in the Marshlands all day and I haven't seen a hippo for the last 7 hours, so the Snake Scent clearly isn't working.

3) Only one hippo battle is showing up in my user log - I swear I fought 2 or 3, but I think I only won one of them normally, the other two used a rabbit foot? So maybe rabbit foot battles don't show up in the log? This is probably unrelated to the other issues.

Just fought another hippo and won with a Lucky Foot - the battle shows up in the Log as "Used Lucky Foot against ! Gained +324 EXP." It still wasn't counted for the quest.

I've just had this problem too. My quest is to slay 10 hippos. I've used a snake scent but I haven't encountered any even after using 3 full bars of energy.

I've used up a bar and a half of energy and no rhinos have appeared in the rocky hills (I did the same quest a week or two ago with snake scent and it worked just fine). If it helps, I attempted to breed a lioness and find them without the snake scent first, but had no luck so used the item later in the day, a few hours after I got the quest. I also failed to complete my previous quest, which was another slaying quest, in case that affects it.
I have had the same problem in the past with slaying quests for- crocodiles, honey badgers, primates and hooved prey. Really hope this gets fixed soon, it's been going on for a while. Still have snake scent and the quest active if you need screenshots or want to test stuff :)

Despite humans being recategorised as primates, they don't seem to be attracted by the snake scent for the slay primates quest.

It will attract baboons just fine, but in a zone without them where poachers should show up, they aren't.

I'm having the same issue right now, my quest is asking me to slay birds but none show up in Explore despite snake scent being active. Right now I can't even tell if they count towards the quest since I've literally not encountered even a single one. x)

Edit: Just defeated a Marabou Stork and it counted. c:

Where do you find honey badgers?
