Bison

The Bison is a species of animal found in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Location[]

Great Plains
Hennigan's Stead (southwest)
The Heartlands (southwest)
- Emerald Ranch (west)

Compendium[]

The American Bison is native to the plains of New Hanover and West Elizabeth. As a herbivore, it grazes on grains, hay, and corn. Due to the size of an average bison, high powered weapons like a Carcano Rifle, or a Bow with Improved Arrows, should also be considered when hunting.

Tips[]

A rifle (non-sighted or scoped) is recommended to hunt the bison.
- While sniper rifles, loaded with Regular cartridges is sufficient to take down bison in one shot, other rifles need to be loaded with Express cartridges to do the same.
