Description

A venomous serpent lurking in the Heartland’s dry grass and rocky outcrops, the prairie rattlesnake is a silent predator whose bite can fell a grown man. Its warning rattle echoes through the plains, a chilling reminder to tread carefully. Common in RDR2’s wilderness, these snakes strike when startled, making them a hazard for careless travelers foraging or camping. Their venom saps strength, leaving victims to stagger through the dust, seeking aid in a land that offers little mercy.
