Curiosidades

◆The game states that elk are the largest species of deer in the world. This is only true in-game; in real life, the largest extant species of deer in the world is the moose (Alces alces), which is not present in Redemption. Early after the game's release, many players believed that the elk was, in fact, a moose at first sight. Moose would eventually make an appearance in Red Dead Redemption 2.
◆Strangely, areas such as Manzanita Post and Thieves' Landing are decorated with elk and moose antlers. However, there are no moose present in-game.
◆The type of elk in the game is likely the Rocky Mountain subspecies (C. c. nelsoni) of elk. They are closely related to red deer (C. elaphus), a European and Asian species.
◆Historically, there were six different subspecies of elk in North America. Two subspecies - the eastern elk (C. c. canadensis) and Merriam's elk (C. c. merriami)- are now extinct. The four remaining subspecies are the tule elk (C. c. nannodes), Rocky Mountain elk, Roosevelt elk (C. c. roosevelti), and Manitoban elk (C. c. manitobensis).
◆While the deer featured in the game are present in both sexes (with the 'buck' being male, and the 'doe' being female), the elk appear to all be male. This is because only elk bulls (males) sport the antlers for which they are recognized; elk cows (females) do not have antlers. This distinction was eventually added in Redemption 2.
◆Elk, like many other animals, can not be found in Undead Nightmare.
◆There are two varieties of elk present in-game: a pale elk, and a yellowish one. The pale type seems to have larger antlers.
