I think my four new suggestions would the following
Trainable animals: it would have to take a while to train an animal but I think it would be really cool, wolves could eventaully be used as guard dogs that attack what their owners do.... Now in another topic I saw Pigeons carrying messages... this would not work unless the pigeon knew the person and was not to far away *example like desert to forest *alenz hills east to brinks forest* now chickens would be good for eggs.. and hawks could do somthing maybe also... deer, mooses, snakes, ect would be useless.... Now a cow would do good you should be able to drink milk also.
Fruit seeds: having seed's would be cool and it could be like counted as an unmovable object like a say "apple tree" which when it is young would not give many apples (maybe the apples could drop to the ground or somthing) but when older give alot of apples.
Great occurnces : I think there should be things like the great potatoe famine (Ireland 1815-1850) and such. I was also thinking of things like animal migrations bears dissapearings for hibernating, ect
New Animals: I would also like some new animals that maybe you could live on. The north americans survived on the buffalo.... making small teepee's (these could carry very little but provide shelter) also log cabins are very rare *never seen one in my entire cantr 2 life* and maybe logs should be found or cut down by axe's only.[/b]

Animals are being worked on which can be trained.
Trees would add too much scripting for too little a purpose at the moment I think.
Great occurences are not being worked on and probably won't be for ages but weather is being worked on. That can be considered an occurence.
And Buffalo are already in Cantr.

First and foremost: Welcome to the forums! Good first post!
We have radios and dirt bikes, but we can't ride a horse or teach and elephant how to kill a man. Both things I want to do, although a rhino will easily substitute for a elephant. Glad to hear this is being worked on, I wanna do something!
While I like the idea of being able to transplant fauna within certain limitations at some point, I also want to be able to strip fauna from locations at some point too. If there were potatoes everywhere, it would make for a flat and boring smear of civilisations. The seperations that exist now are due to distance and food supply. If it is really hard to travel across a land without having enough rice to get you back to where you can get more, cultures tend to develope in place, and you get different cultures, to some degree, centered around food sources. I have seen monarchies, bueracracies, democracies, dictatorships, anarchy, and am founding the beginings of a communist land. All this couldn't happen if there weren't voids in food.
There is a great occurance or two coming up. Amnesia, and food. If you want to make an occorance out of it, Speech it up in character. Have fun with it, and make sure you and the PD know where you're going so you will know where to draw the line on the capital rule.
As mentioned, there are bufallo, although not in their wonderful numbers of thousands, now down to hundreds, and no vast piles of rotting meat ever came of it. *sigh* Now people cooked buffalo meat with a fuel. Sometimes they used Buffallo Chips aka poo. It's bad enough we have eggs and milk squirting from animals now, but to kill something and get a pile of poo on the ground to boot ... well, it will lead to bad things. Humors things though, like scooping up after your kills, but bad things none the less.
Again, welcome, I hope you engage in dicussion and don't take critisim badly, we all like talking things out here, pros and cons, and sometimes some great stuff in between.

Reality was never my strong point.

A lot of things could be done to ease the whole food situation, like being able to cook meat with buffalo chips or something. Not raw poop, this would be aged poop, but it is the same idea. I'm all for new ways to cook food now that this new system is coming.
