Red Dead Redemption 2 Legendary Bear Pelt Guide: What To Do With It

<p>When you're not robbing folks, riding from town to town, and trying to keep your gang out of trouble in <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/red-dead-redemption-2/">Red Dead Redemption 2</a>, chances are pretty good you'll be hunting. Tracking and killing animals keeps you and your gang fed and earns you crafting materials, as well as goods to sell to make money to get Arthur better equipment. But for any hunter in Red Dead Redemption 2, the ultimate prize are the various <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/red-dead-2-legendary-hunting-guide-animals-pelts-a/1100-6462835/">Legendary Animals</a> scattered around the map, whose pelts yield unique rewards--if you're canny enough to bring them down.</p><p dir="ltr">In Chapter 2, you'll be introduced to your first Legendary Animal in a story mission with Hosea, in which he and Arthur set out to hunt a huge grizzly bear. You can return to the hunt later if you're so inclined, but it's possible to take the bear on your first encounter with it, if you're skilled (or more likely, lucky). If you manage to kill and skin the big grizzly, you'll get a Legendary Bear Pelt, a unique item in the world of <a href="https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/red-dead-redemption-2-review-wild-wild-west/1900-6417019/">Red Dead Redemption 2</a> that can be used to make special new gear.</p><p dir="ltr">The question is, what exactly do you do with the huge Legendary Bear Pelt once you have it? Red Dead 2 isn't very clear on this point. In fact, there are special requirements for using the pelts of Legendary Animals--you can't just sell them to any store in a town, or donate them to Pearson back at your camp. In the case of the Legendary Bear pelt, there's a good chance you won't even have heard of the person yet who you need to interact with in order to use it.</p><p dir="ltr">Here's what you need to know about hunting the Legendary Bear, where you'll find it, and what to do once you've killed it.</p><figure data-align="center" data-size="large" data-img-src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456768-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029135919.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3456768" data-ratio="0.5625" data-width="1920" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 1920px"><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456768-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029135919.jpg"><img alt="No Caption Provided" src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scale_super/1581/15811374/3456768-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029135919.jpg" srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456768-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029135919.jpg 1920w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...135919.jpg 1280w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...135919.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" data-width="1280"></a></figure><p dir="ltr"><strong>Where To Find The Bear</strong></p><p dir="ltr">The easiest way to get to and deal with the Legendary grizzly is in Chapter 2, when you take on the mission Exit Pursued By a Bruised Ego from Hosea. Arthur and Hosea will head out to find the Baharati Grizzly Bear in the Grizzlies East region, north of O'Creagh's Run, and once you've finished the mission, the bear will be hanging around in the area for you to hunt. Once you've fought off the bear during the mission, Hosea will decide to take his leave of hunting giant killer animals with some "I'm getting too old for this s---" dialogue. At that point, you can choose to stick around and finish what you started and take down the bear.</p><p dir="ltr">It's worth noting that the bear is no pushover and it can definitely kill you if you're not careful. If you're not outfitted super well at this point in the game, you might want to take some time in the world to earn better gear and improve Arthur's well-being before you commit to the fight. That said, it's possible to kill the bear here and now--we did it with Arthur's stock weapons that he had at this point in the game.</p><p dir="ltr">Bring down the bear and you'll be able to skin it, taking a whole bunch of stuff, including the Legendary Bear Pelt. This is the unique item you need for crafting special clothing you can't get anywhere else.</p><figure data-align="center" data-size="large" data-img-src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456769-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124808.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3456769" data-ratio="0.5625" data-width="1920" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 1920px"><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456769-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124808.jpg"><img alt="No Caption Provided" src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scale_super/1581/15811374/3456769-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124808.jpg" srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456769-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124808.jpg 1920w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...124808.jpg 1280w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...124808.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" data-width="1280"></a></figure><p dir="ltr"><strong>You've Got The Legendary Bear Pelt--Now What?</strong></p><p dir="ltr">Once you have the pelt, you'll probably be pretty confused about what to actually do with it. Regular shopkeepers won't take the pelt off your hands, and neither will Pearson in camp. You need to go to a specific person to deal with the pelt: the Trapper.</p><p dir="ltr">If you talk to Pearson, he may well off-handedly mention the Canadian fur trapper who hangs around in the area, which will mark the Trapper's location on your map. He roams around, so make sure to check your map for his icon before heading out. He also has a shop in Saint Denis, located in the southeast corner of the map, in the outdoor market, where you can reliably find him.</p><figure data-align="center" data-size="large" data-img-src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456770-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029115025.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3456770" data-ratio="0.5625" data-width="1920" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 1920px"><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456770-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029115025.jpg"><img alt="No Caption Provided" src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scale_super/1581/15811374/3456770-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029115025.jpg" srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456770-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029115025.jpg 1920w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...115025.jpg 1280w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...115025.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" data-width="1280"></a></figure><p dir="ltr">When you find the Trapper, you'll be able to check out his goods, all of which are unique clothes made from the pelts of Legendary Animals. The thing is, you'll need more than to just take down the bear if you want the whole outfit. Various Legendary Bear items also require other pelts, as well as for you to spend some money. Here's what you'll need to craft each piece of the Legendary Bear outfit:</p><ul><li dir="ltr"><strong>Legendary Bear Head Hat:</strong> Legendary Bear Pelt, $40,</li><li dir="ltr"><strong>Legendary Bear Coat:</strong> Legendary Bear Pelt, Perfect Bison Pelt, $28</li><li dir="ltr"><strong>Legendary Bear Roper:</strong> Legendary Bear Pelt, Perfect Bull Hide, $34</li></ul><p dir="ltr">Completing the outfit also requires the <strong>Boar Riding Gloves</strong>, which require a Perfect Boar Pelt and two Perfect Rabbit Pelts, and will cost you $15.</p><p dir="ltr">Though each of the bear items notes that a Legendary Bear Pelt is required, there's only the one. Once you've taken down the Baharit Grizzly, you'll have fulfilled the Bear Pelt requirement for each clothing item.</p><figure data-align="center" data-size="large" data-img-src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456767-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124912.jpg" data-ref-id="1300-3456767" data-ratio="0.5625" data-width="1920" data-embed-type="image" style="width: 1920px"><a href="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456767-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124912.jpg"><img alt="No Caption Provided" src="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scale_super/1581/15811374/3456767-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124912.jpg" srcset="https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/original/1581/15811374/3456767-red+dead+redemption+2_20181029124912.jpg 1920w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...124912.jpg 1280w, https://static.gamespot.com/uploads/scal...124912.jpg 480w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" data-width="1280"></a></figure><p dir="ltr"><strong>What Happens If You Lose Your Bear Pelt?</strong></p><p dir="ltr">You'll likely sling the Legendary Bear Pelt onto your horse and then find yourself riding for quite a ways to track down the Trapper, whether you're headed south to Saint Denis or out into the wilderness. In all that travel time, misfortune can easily befall even the most careful of cowboy, and if your horse falls or you're killed, you'll likely lose the Legendary Bear Pelt.</p><p dir="ltr">That's okay! Don't panic. Whether you carry the pelt physically to the Trapper or not, once you've killed and skinned the Baharati Grizzly Bear, the pelt is unlocked. That requirement will be fulfilled on the Trapper's list even if you don't actually carry the skin all the way to him. You can still access the clothing items once you have everything you need for the recipes.</p><p dir="ltr">There are a whole lot of other Legendary Animals to find out there in the big world of Red Dead Redemption 2--<a href="https://www.gamespot.com/articles/red-dead-2-legendary-hunting-guide-animals-pelts-a/1100-6462835/">check out our guide on where to locate them all</a>.
