The Red Dead Redemption 2 Trapper locations mark the places you need to go if you want to turn in any pelts you've acquired while you're out and about hunting.

You can then hand over those pelts and other animal items to the local trapper in Red Dead Redemption 2, who can transform them in to new outfits and hats for Arthur. Plus, you can also sell any skins you pick up, which is a great way to earn some bucks if you're in need of some extra cash.

There aren't many Trappers in the world, though, so if you're on the hunt for Trapper locations on the map, we're here to help. Below, you'll find a helpful guide to all of the Red Dead Redemption 2 Trapper locations.

Want to hunt down all the Red Dead Redemption 2 Legendary Animals so you have pelts to trade? We've got all of their locations in our video walkthrough:

Saint Denis Trapper

The easiest Trapper to find is in Saint Denis, one of Red Dead Redemption 2’s main cities. Head over to the market on the east side and enter through the gates. The Trapper will be the first merchant on your left, looking typically scruffy amongst the other merchants.

Annesburg Trapper

North of Saint Denis and directly west of the Elysian Pool, this Trapper has set up shop in the woods between the V and E of New Hanover, just north of the lettering on the in-game map. Find him and you can sell as much game as your heart desires.

Riggs Station Trapper

If you head west from Bard’s Crossing you will find this Trapper just slightly east of Riggs Station, upon a small hill. Simply scale the hill from a safe track and you’ll find the Trapper’s den. Go forth and sell carcasses, fellow cowboy.

Big Valley Trapper

This particular Trapper is well and truly out in the sticks. Fast travel to Strawberry and then head north west. Follow the road past Lake Owanjila and you’ll find the Trapper in the woods near to the edge of the map.

Tall Trees Trapper

Southwest of Manzanita Post, head just west of the ‘S’ in Tall Trees to find this particular Trapper. He’s just by the Lower Montana River on the right hand side of the road in a little woodland outcrop, ready to offer Arthur his wares.
