Red Dead Redemption 2: 14 MORE Pointless Details That'll Blow Your Mind

2. Opossums Play Dead If You're Near

Opossums are crafty little animals that you can hunt in RDR 2 - but they're surprisingly difficult to find and keep track of.

What makes them even more tough to spot and kill, though, is that they can actually play dead if they notice you in advance. You might see one suddenly fall limp, yet you won't get a prompt to pick it up or skin it.

At first glance it initially looks like the game has bugged out, but it's actually part of the animal's behaviour to drop down and play dead in order to fool you and hopefully go on to survive another day. In real life, that might fool you, but in the game you still get a red reticule to let you know you should fire away.
