0007039: Animal Trainer cannot find animal to train.
If you select an animal to be trained, either war or hunting, the assigned trainer will spam error that the animal cannot be found. The only way the animal will be trained is if a specific trainer is assigned to it.
z > Animals tab.
Select war or hunting enabled animal.
Do not specifically select trainer but keep the default Any Trainer enabled.
Error announcement should commence.

To verify, go back to z > Animals and select a specific trainer. Trainer should now find the animal, complete training as expected.
I only experienced this with dogs, since I had no other war/hunting able animals to attempt to recreate.

It also didn't seem to matter if i changed the labor assignments before or after the training was queued, in both cases they spammed the error and in both cases they immediately trained an animal when I specifically assigned it to them.
