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

Description[]

Hawks are medium-sized birds of prey, feeding on small animals such as mice, rabbits, squirrels, birds, snakes and lizards. They have a sharp, yellow beak, large eyes, and long, pointed tails covered in thick, brown feathers. Hawks also have a very wide wingspan, allowing them to fly great distances at a time. There are three species of hawk: the Ferruginous Hawk, the Red-Tailed Hawk, and the Rough-Legged Hawk.

Location[]

Hawks can be found in virtually all locations, though they tend to be more populous around Armadillo, New Austin.

Challenges[]

Hawks that are feeding on a corpse can be killed to gain progress for Rank 6 of the Survivalist Challenge.

Ferruginous Hawk[]

Ferruginous Hawks can be found across the states. As carnivores, they prey on small mammals like rabbits, ground squirrels, prairie dogs, lizards, and birds. The Varmint Rifle is considered to be the best weapon for a clean kill. The feathers of the hawks can be used for crafting.[1]

Red-tailed Hawk[]

Red-tailed Hawks are native to the open fields and deserts of New Austin, West Elizabeth and New Hanover. As omnivores, their diet consists of small mammals, reptiles, fish, birds, and fresh carrion. The Varmint Rifle is considered to be the best for hunting hawks and other birds of this size. The feathers of the hawks can be used for crafting.[2]

Rough-legged Hawk[]

Rough-legged Hawks can be found in open areas and alongside cliffs across the states. As carnivores, they prey on small mammals, and carrion becomes their main diet during the winter seasons. The easiest way to take out a bird of this size is using a Varmint Rifle. The feathers of the hawks can be used for crafting.[3]
