Last Edited by TreeFitty February 05, 2015 : 252 Comments : 585,950 Views

Red Dead Redemption featured a wide array of animals small and large. It seemed only right for some of those animals to return to Grand Theft Auto V since the game features a functioning ecosystem teeming with wildlife. What animals can we turn into roadkill? Check out a list below...

Butterflies

Butterflies can be seen flying around gardens or other flower-filled areas.

The PC/PS4/Xb1 version of GTA V includes cats which can be spotted lounging in alleyways.

    Yes there is a snake in the Yellow Jack Inn and Vanilla Unicorn, however, they are only props. They do not move and have no interaction.
  • Xpert (Guest) December 16, 2016
    You forgot to add the snake...there is a snake in Blaine County where you can play darts...look in the corner in the glass

  • TreeFitty (Guest) September 26, 2016
    Nope. Animals are not in GTA Online and at this point they will not be added to the GTA V incarnation.
