Which animals drop materials needed for the Satchel of the East?

The Satchel of the East is one of the most valuable items in Red Dead Redemption 2, as it allows you to carry 99 of every item, significantly increasing your inventory capacity. To craft this satchel, you must first unlock the Leather Crafting Tools from Pearson at the camp. This requires completing the mission ''Money Lending and Other Sins II'' in Chapter 2. Once unlocked, you can begin crafting satchels, including the Satchel of the East, which requires materials from specific animals.\n\nTo craft the Satchel of the East, you need to gather materials from seven different animals: the Perfect Deer Pelt, Perfect Elk Pelt, Perfect Panther Pelt, Perfect Bison Pelt, Perfect Boar Pelt, Perfect Iguana Skin, and Perfect Cougar Pelt. Each of these pelts must be in perfect condition, meaning you need to hunt the animals using the correct weapon and aim for a clean kill. For example, deer and elk require a rifle with a headshot, while smaller animals like the iguana need a varmint rifle.\n\nDeer and elk are relatively common and can be found in forests and open plains across the map. The Heartlands and Big Valley are excellent locations for deer, while elk are often found in the northern regions like Cumberland Forest. Bison are located in the Great Plains near Blackwater, but be cautious as this area is dangerous in the early game. Boars are abundant in the forests of Lemoyne, particularly around Rhodes and Scarlett Meadows.\n\nPanthers and cougars are more challenging to hunt due to their rarity and aggressive behavior. Panthers are found in the dense forests south of Rhodes, near Catfish Jackson''s. Cougars are typically found in the northern regions like Roanoke Ridge and Big Valley. Both require a rifle or bow with improved arrows for a clean kill. Iguanas, on the other hand, are found on the islands west of Clemens Point, accessible by swimming or using a boat.\n\nOne common challenge is maintaining the perfect condition of pelts. To avoid damaging the pelt, always use the correct weapon and aim for the head or heart. Additionally, avoid trampling the carcass with your horse or letting predators attack it. If you accidentally damage the pelt, you can reload a save or wait for the animal to respawn. Another tip is to use Dead Eye to ensure a precise shot, especially for fast-moving or aggressive animals like cougars.\n\nOnce you have all the required pelts, return to Pearson at the camp and access the crafting menu. Select the Satchel of the East and confirm the materials. After crafting, the satchel will automatically increase your inventory capacity, allowing you to carry more items like herbs, tonics, and ammunition. This is particularly useful for long hunting trips or extended missions where resources are scarce.\n\nIn summary, crafting the Satchel of the East requires patience, precision, and knowledge of animal locations. Focus on using the right weapons, aim for clean kills, and explore the map thoroughly to find the necessary animals. With this satchel, you''ll have a significant advantage in managing your inventory and surviving the harsh world of Red Dead Redemption 2.
