Hoping to farm some big game meat. I’m roaming around the tall trees north of Annesburg and I’m barely finding any animals. I found out that wolves give big game meat and they’re easy to kill and travel in packs, so that’s a good start. If anyone could give me locations where packs of wolves can be a common-ish sight then please let me know, or if there’s other animals I can farm that give big game meat. Thanks!

Wolves primarily come out at night and luckily there are a few spawn points that you can more or less manipulate over and over again, Just north of west Elizabeth on the map is little creek river and above that is Hanging dog ranch.  You should see a path that splits into three branches, take the far tight branch (at night) and you should get jumped by several wolves, this is repeatable after resting a few days.  

Also Cotoora Springs is a good spot, wolves spawn fairly commonly there.

Guessing here but Bison most probably drop big game meat and they usually spawn in massive herds. They can be found in the great plains just below the H in New Hannover.

Real men hunt cougars and grizzlies with their bare hands.  Let us know how you get on with that :)

Alligators down south in the swamps give big game meat, and they are ridiculously easy to hunt and are down there in huge numbers.

I can confirm this since I found this place when Pearson took me there once to get some crayfish. Now I go back here and then if I want some BGM. Thanks for sharing!

From what i'm reading online (gameshedge.com hunting guide) there's 4 quality grades for meat. 

Best 

  • Big game (gators, wolves, bears, moose, etc.)

High Quality

  • Exotic Bird (Parakeets, Parrots, Pelicans, etc.)
  • Tender Pork (various pigs)
  • Mature Venison (Deer and pronghorn)
  • Prime Beef (Cattle, Buffalo, Oxen)
  • Game Meat (Rabbits, Ducks, Pheasants, etc.)
  • Succulent Fish (trout, salmon, other such game fish)

Good Quality

  • Crustacean (Shellfish)
  • Flakey Fish (Perch, Bass, etc.)
  • Plump Bird (Turkey, Geese, Chicken, etc.)
  • Grisly Mutton (sheep, goats)

Low Quality

  • Gritty Fish (Bluegill and other trash fish)
  • Herptile Meat (Frogs, Iguana, etc.)
  • Gamey Bird (small birds)
  • Stringy Meat (rodents and other small varmints)

I read somewhere else while looking for this list, that perfect animals will give high quality, ie that prefect buck might give you big game, or a large bluegill (caught with the lure or special lure) might give flakey fish.  I haven't paid enough attention to verify this.  I'll have to check that out tonight while i'm out hunting.

You and me both brother. I think we will have better luck in the classified ads on Craigslist. 😭
