Animals are a central feature of the American wilderness and play a role in both Red Dead Revolver and Red Dead Redemption.
Red Dead Revolver
Animals do not play a large role in Red Dead Revolver since hunting is not a feature of the game and the wilderness areas are only encountered within the context of missions. A handful of species do appear and contribute to gameplay, however.
Horses are used as mounts by the player and enemies during several missions. Bulls and American Bison also serve as mounts in one mission. Chickens wander around farm areas. A single dog, belonging to protagonist Red Harlow, makes an appearance early in the game. A vulture appears in one mission and is the only animal in the game that can be killed for money and that can be automatically targeted by the player.
Red Dead Redemption
Fauna comes in a variety of shapes and sizes and occupy wild areas throughout the gameplay. Some animals have been domesticated by the inhabitants of the American West, and serve as pets, transportation or livestock. Other animals cluster together in the wild in packs, herds, and flocks.
Predatory animals will attempt to hunt and kill other animals, human NPCs, as well as the player and his Horse.
Almost all species of animals can be hunted and killed. Many of these animals can be skinned, and have their pelt/feathers sold to merchants for cash. Birds can't be skinned, however, the player can loot their feathers.
The game map displays icons for various animals, indicating locations where those animals are most common.
In Undead Nightmare, several of the animals from the main game appear as Undead Animals.

Legendary Animals
These are the legendary animals found in both singleplayer and multiplayer:
- Khan the Jaguar – Located in the Ojo Del Diablo hills area south of Chuparosa, south of the road (Tanner's Reach in multiplayer). The player should use bait if he/she has difficulty finding him. One shot in the head with the buffalo rifle is enough to kill it. Use Dead Eye if needed.
- Lobo the Wolf – Located near the Eastern edge of the Aurora Basin lake, northwest of Tall Trees (Barranca in multiplayer). Use bait/gun/dead eye, as above.
- Gordo the Boar – Located in the Stillwater Creek area, north of the road, south of the River, and Southwest of Thieves' Landing (Greenhollow in multiplayer). Use bait, gun, etc.
- Brumas the Bear – Located in the Nekoti Rock area. Lives in a cave at the top of a mountain, Northeast of the Aurora Basin lake (Bearclaw Camp in multiplayer). Shoot him and take his pelt to complete the Master Hunter Level 10 challenge. Two shots in the head with the buffalo rifle should do it. If the player doesn't want to take any risks, they should go to Dead Eye with the Evans Repeater and shoot the whole magazine into the bear.
The Liars and Cheats DLC contains 4 new legendary animals on each of the 4 new hunting grounds. They can only be found in multiplayer Free Roam.
They are:
- Demi the Cougar – Located in Silent Stead, Southwest of Rathskeller Fork.
- Keifer the Wolf – Located in Rio del Lobo, South of Lake Don Julio.
- Roberto the Bobcat – Located in Roca de Madera, Southwest of El Presidio.
- Wilbur the Boar – Located in Broken Tree, East of Beecher's Hope.
