Beavers are an amphibiously adapted, mammalian animal species, found in areas of the American west at the time of Red Dead Redemption. These animals are known for their ability to build large dams, flooding waterways and creating ponds. They are highly sought-after for their pelts.

In the stranger task "Deadalus and Son" players must collect 5 beaver furs for Charles Kinnear. Beavers are only found in West Elizabeth, and when players meet him, West Elizabeth may not be available yet.

The player can hunt and skin beavers for their fur and meat.

Beaver Meat can go for $8 - $11 Beaver Fur can go for $8 - $15.

Location

Beavers can only be found in West Elizabeth.

Beaver Location

They are most commonly found around natural water sources in West Elizabeth such as the river on the North border of the Great Plains, specifically North and Northwest of Beecher's Hope. At that river you can find Beavers in groups of 3 to 5, thus making this area the most common beaver location in the game.They can also be found occasionally in Tall Trees near the water, but in those locations they tend to be solitary.

West of the Pacific Union Camp are also groups of 3 to 5 beavers to be found, although this marshy land would be in the real world just outside their Natural habitat.

Several beavers can be found just West of Nekoti Rock in the snow just to the East of where the road makes a T


Northwest of Bearclaw Camp there is a spot with a burned down log cabin. This tends to be a spawning point for 3 to 5 beavers.

Tips

Using the Buffalo Rifle or any rifles or shotguns will vaporize a Beaver, use a pistol or the corpse will not be left for players to skin, make sure you are not using your larger weapons. You can find them more frequently at night.

When auto-targeting beavers at close range, weapon crosshair will target just below the beaver. This results in the shot missing.


Trivia
