Where can I find the Legendary Ram in the Cattail Pond area?

The Legendary Ram in Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the most sought-after legendary animals, and it can be found near Cattail Pond in the Grizzlies East region. To begin your hunt, you must first unlock the Legendary Animal map by completing the mission ''Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego'' in Chapter 2. This mission introduces you to hunting and unlocks the ability to track and hunt legendary animals.\n\nOnce the map is unlocked, head to the Cattail Pond area, located northwest of Valentine and northeast of Wallace Station. The Legendary Ram''s territory is marked by a paw print icon on your map. When you arrive, use Eagle Eye to scan for clues. Look for golden particles in the air, which indicate the presence of a clue. The first clue is usually a tuft of fur or tracks near the pond.\n\nAfter finding the first clue, follow the trail using Eagle Eye. The Legendary Ram is a skittish animal, so approach carefully. Use cover scent lotion to mask your scent and avoid spooking it. Equip a rifle with high damage, such as the Rolling Block Rifle or Carcano Rifle, to ensure a clean kill. Aim for the head or heart to maximize your chances of a one-shot kill and preserve the pelt''s quality.\n\nOne common challenge is the Ram''s tendency to flee into rocky terrain, making it difficult to track. To counter this, use your binoculars to spot it from a distance and plan your approach. If the Ram starts running, use Dead Eye to slow time and land a precise shot. Be prepared for a chase, as the Ram can cover ground quickly.\n\nOnce you''ve successfully hunted the Legendary Ram, take its pelt and antlers to the Trapper. The Trapper can craft unique clothing items, such as the Legendary Ram Hat and the Legendary Ram Rifleman Gloves. Additionally, the antlers can be used at the Fence to craft the Ram Horn Trinket, which increases the quality of collected herbs.\n\nFor new players, it''s important to note that legendary animals do not respawn. If you fail to kill the Ram or lose its pelt, you cannot hunt it again. Always save your game before attempting the hunt to avoid losing progress. Experienced players can use the Ram Horn Trinket to enhance their herb-gathering efficiency, making it a valuable addition to your inventory.\n\nIn summary, the Legendary Ram can be found near Cattail Pond in the Grizzlies East region. Use Eagle Eye to track it, approach carefully with cover scent lotion, and equip a high-damage rifle for a clean kill. Deliver the pelt and antlers to the Trapper and Fence for unique rewards. Save your game before the hunt to avoid losing progress, and enjoy the benefits of the Ram Horn Trinket for herb gathering.
