Select a region to narrow the guide. Cards show the strongest named locations: rivers, ranches, swamps, forests, islands, deserts, and mountain lakes.

Source Notes

Animal product rows and clean-kill weapon guidance are normalized from the Red Dead Wiki animal-products reference and expanded with the broader RDR2 species, legendary animal, and legendary fish lists. Location notes are summarized into practical hunting routes and region filters for fast in-game use. Domestic/story animals that have no perfect-pelt route are marked plainly instead of forcing a fake clean-kill answer.
