How do you find the Legendary Fox in RDR2?

The Legendary Fox in Red Dead Redemption 2 is one of the many legendary animals you can hunt as part of the game''s hunting mechanics. To find and hunt the Legendary Fox, you need to follow a series of steps, starting with unlocking the ability to hunt legendary animals. This is done by completing the mission ''Exit Pursued by a Bruised Ego'' in Chapter 2, where Hosea introduces you to hunting legendary animals. Once this mission is complete, you can begin your search for the Legendary Fox.\n\nThe Legendary Fox is located in the Scarlett Meadows region of Lemoyne, specifically in the area just north of Rhodes. To pinpoint its exact location, open your map and look for the fox icon near Mattock Pond. This icon will only appear once you are close enough to the area, so you may need to explore the region thoroughly. The fox''s territory is marked by a golden question mark on the map, which turns into a paw print once you enter the area.\n\nBefore heading out to hunt the Legendary Fox, make sure you are well-prepared. Equip yourself with a rifle or a bow with improved arrows, as these weapons are ideal for taking down legendary animals without damaging their pelts. Additionally, stock up on health tonics and stamina tonics, as the fox is fast and may require a chase. It''s also a good idea to bring along some predator bait to lure the fox out of hiding.\n\nOnce you arrive in the area, use your Eagle Eye ability to track the fox. Look for golden clues such as fur, droppings, or scratch marks on the ground. These clues will lead you closer to the fox''s location. Be patient and follow the trail carefully, as the Legendary Fox is a cunning creature and may try to evade you. If you lose the trail, use your Eagle Eye again to reacquire it.\n\nWhen you finally spot the Legendary Fox, approach it cautiously. If you spook it, it will run away, and you''ll need to chase it down. Use Dead Eye to target the fox and deliver a clean shot to its head or heart for a quick and humane kill. Avoid using explosives or low-quality weapons, as these can ruin the pelt. Once the fox is down, skin it to collect the Legendary Fox Pelt and Legendary Fox Claw.\n\nAfter successfully hunting the Legendary Fox, take the pelt to the Trapper to craft unique clothing items. The Trapper can be found in various locations, such as Saint Denis or near Riggs Station. Additionally, the Legendary Fox Claw can be used to craft a trinket at the Fence, which provides a permanent stamina boost. This makes the hunt not only rewarding but also beneficial for your character''s progression.\n\nOne common challenge players face is losing the fox during the chase. If this happens, don''t panic. Use your horse to keep up with the fox, and try to corner it near water or rocky terrain where it can''t escape easily. Another tip is to use cover scent lotion to mask your scent, making it harder for the fox to detect you. This can give you the upper hand in getting closer for a clean shot.\n\nIn summary, hunting the Legendary Fox requires preparation, patience, and precision. By following the steps outlined above, you can successfully track, hunt, and harvest this elusive creature. Remember to use the right weapons, follow the clues carefully, and make use of your Eagle Eye ability to ensure a successful hunt. Happy hunting!
