Red Dead Redemption 2 Cougar Locations | Map Locations and Loot

The cougar hunt and the associated ‘6th Master Hunter Challenge’ are considered to be some of the most challenging and rewarding hunts in Red Dead Redemption 2. These graceful animals are not to be trifled with and can kill oblivious players very quickly due to their speed and high damage.

The best weapons to hunt cougars and mountain lions with are either a rifle or a bow with poison arrows. These weapons are also the best way to obtain the Perfect Cougar Pelt. Cougars sit at the top of their food chain, having rare altercations with bears and wolves over food and territory. Here’s where to find cougar in Red Dead Redemption 2, and what loot you get after hunting them.
