Red Dead Redemption 2 Badger Guide

The American Badger is a mid sized mammal in rdr 2. Despite having no legendary variant of the animal, it still is a useful animal to hunt for the creation of clothes. The meat can also be eaten. This guide will tell you everything you need to know about the badger.

Best Weapon to Kill the Badger With

The badger can be a difficult animal to kill perfectly due to its relatively small size and fast movement speed. Because of this, if you are looking to kill a badger, you should use the Varmint Rifle to have the best chance at a perfect kill. Make sure you use predator bait to attract the animal, as it does feed on smaller animals such as squirrels.

Badger Locations

The badger is often found in the woods near creeks or rivers. You will have the best luck finding it in in the woods of LeMoyne, by the Upper Montana River in West Elizabeth, or along the Dakota River in Ambarino.
