Legendary Animals

[Texanasf]

Okay so the other day i was hunting the legendary coyote and just as i was about to shoot and kill the coyote a message popped up saying there was too much activity in the area. So as soon as i stopped aiming at the coyote he just died on me but i was able to skin him and sell his fur and carcass but in his info box it says i did not kill him. Am i able to track and kill him again?

Wonky things like this seem to happen with the legendary's. 

I had a normal 3-star pronghorn carcass, harvested in the area of the legendary, on my horse. Did a manual save and re-load before getting back to Pearson with it. When I got back to donate it for my skull decoration, it was in my inventory as legendary!!! Was not x-ed out on the map. 

I took him off my horse and put him back on, went back to Pearson and the legendary was still in my inventory, but so was the 3-star that it should have been! So now I have a legendary pronghorn in my inventory. Full carcass. But still available on the map.

I've heard talk that some folk have had similar things happen and were able to have two of the same legendary in their inventory. 

My guess is you can track and harvest again.

Don't see why you'd want 2.  1 gives you everything you need for crafting, and you can't sell them at the fence/trapper/etc.

I constantly get that same BS (too much activity message ) everytime i go to do the legendary buck nighttime daytime morning does not matter.

I have paid off all my bounties so i have no hunters looking for me i might as well give up cause it 's obvious the game has no intention of letting me hunt it  the animal or even tell me how to fix the problem. so now the game is no longer enjoyable.

Thank's a lot Rock Star.

Try entering the area quietly. I've only gotten this message if I was being hunted, or if I was too loud and spooked the animals.

Keep in mind they made hunting fairly realistic. The animals react how they actually would IRL (for the most part).
