Kill and skin one coyote	Level 5: Master Hunter (Buffalo Rifle will be available) Level 10: Legendary Hunter (You will be able to create regenerating )

This challenge is about hunting and skinning animals. On the higher levels, you will have to find and catch more rare and powerful animals. First of all buy a bait in the shop. When you will be outside of the town put it on the ground. Animals will come to you and your task will be simple. Detailed localization of all animals can be found in the chapter [Maps] Fauna.

Level 1

Target: Kill and skin 5 coyotes.

Coyotes are residing north of Armadillo. They are active especially at night.

During this quest you cannot be attacked by any coyotes. It will be simple because in most cases they are running away from you. Remember that they are gray.

Level 2

Target: Kill and skin 5 deers.

Deers are very common in New Austin and West Elizabeth. Mainly near the roads (they are appearing in large groups).

Level 3

Target: Kill and skin 5 wolves (use only knife).

Wolves are very popular in Mexico, but you can find them in New Austin too.

This quest will require you to use only a knife and thats why it is quite difficult. First of all, do not attack with knife when wolves are large groups - shoot them with your gun and then, when there will be only two or three of them, attack with your knife.

Level 4

Target: Kill and skin 5 boars and 5 armadillos.

Boars are very rare. You will find them in northern part of Hennigan's Stead and Tall Trees.

Armadillos are residing in Mexico and New Austin. The only problem is that they are very difficult to find, so watch the ground very carefully.

Level 5

Target: Kill and skin two pumas.

Pumas are very powerful so try to shoot them with your gun first. When there will be only one of them, attack with your knife and skin your victim. They can be found in New Austin and West Elizabeth.

To make this quest much easier, slow the time with Dead Eye and shoot them in their body (not the head). If puma will try to escape, use your lasso to stop it.

Level 6

Target: Kill and skin 5 raccoons, 5 skunks and 5 foxes.

All animals are often hiding in high grass so you will have to seek for them. You can also shoot into the air to scary them and force them to move.

All animals can be found in New Austin, mainly during the night.

Level 7

Target: Kill and skin 5 elks and 5 bighorns.

Elks can be found in West Elizabeth, near Tall Trees. Bighorns are much easier to find - they are almost everywhere near cliffs.

Note that elks are very powerful and durable. They can take few shots and stay alive. Try to use Dead Eye and shoot them into the head.

Level 8

Target: Kill and skin bear (use only knife).

Bears can be found north of Tall Trees.

Shoot the bear with your gun and then attack with your knife. When he will get hurt, he will start to flee. Use your lasso to stop him.

Level 9

Target: Find, kill and skill a rare animal - jaguar Khan.

Khan is leaving in Mexico, near Ojo Del Diablo. He will appear on your map as a very risky area. You can try to lure him.

Jaguar is very fast, so stay on your horse. In fact, when you will turn on your Dead Eye, the fight will become very easy.

Level 10

Target: Kill and skin: Lobo the Wolf, Gordo the bear and Brumas the bear.

All of these animals with appear on the map when you will come close enough to their lairs. Of course, you can always lure them.

Do not start fighting without your horse. Horse and Dead Eye will help you in this task.

Brumas is the most difficult enemy. He is residing in a small cave so be careful while fighting with him.
