    I think you need to kill game with either the bow or the dog. I sent the dog after a deer and got animal bait from that.

    You can't buy it in the store.
    And you don't have to.
    Just go hunting animals!
    Simple as that. Hunting is very easy they spawn everywhere! And above that very fun thing to do.
    There you go. Happy hunting 😋

    hunt here

    Just southeast of Drubman Marina, there is a Lookout Tower and VERY high peak. NORTH of the Peak, Elk EVERYWHERE and other animals too. South of the peak there are Bison and plentiful other animals. In one trip I have scored more than $5,000 hunting! Shoot these animals and you will have plenty of bait, and rack up enough money for anything in the weapons aircraft and vehicles purchase areas

    Perhaps the only missing information you require: you need to LOOT the animal bodies to get the bait. It won't magically appear in your inventory. Unless perhaps you have specific For-Hire's in your party that collect stuff for you.

    It says in the game if you go to the inventory and go to the bait icon that you can find it on dead animals or in store

    Not all animals provide bait

    I seemed to have run out of bait after 1) throwing bait, 2) waiting for a predator to show up (bear, cougar, etc.), 3) kill said predator with a shotgun blast or two, and finally 4) skin the carcass, loot, whatever.

    Seems not ALL dead animals provide bait as in FarCry 4? Is this a bug?

    I got bait from a goat, as I recall, so guess where my NEXT hunting area will be?

    Supposedly you get twice as much if you take it out with a bow. And for heavens sake do NOT try a flamethrower or any explosives. That only results in burned skins, charred meat, and a visit from the local ASPCA!

    I believe predators do not drop bait.
