Are the elk herd names randomized?

[Valon Kajo]

Because I just ran into a herd named Pu*sytoes and that took me out for a while.

YO WOAHHHH that's crazyyyy

Elk herd names sre set and themed per map. So you'll only see raspberry herd on Amethyst Mountain, etc.

That specific herd name is the name of a flower. It looks like a cat paw at the right angle.

Yippee! Another quarter for my Pu--ytoes jar

No herds or pack names are randomized. Elk herds are manually assigned names, and wolf packs have a name bank they pull from.

Just a question I wanted to ask, but haven't gotten around to making a discussion for.
Are specific packs going to always show up on the same maps? Some like Crevice Lake and Prospect Peak are always in Slough Creek, however I've found PP dispersils in Amethyst Mountain. I guess what I'm asking is if Crevice Lake could ever create a pack in AM, or in Hellroaring Mountain, or some other map? Or are the name banks are unique for each map?

[TaterTot]

Certain packs are specific to certain maps but may show up as dispersal groups in other maps due to their pack name also being in the dispersal list for the game to pick from.

Prospect Peak is unique in that regard that it was a dispersal group in Amethyst before Slough Creek was ever a map. Last I recall it's the only one to show up elsewhere due to that.

Now now class, let's be mature

i've seen a shoelace pack in Lost River (classic). Elk herd names aren't randomized

Yeah, Lucky pack always appears on Lost River DLC, and nowhere else.

Yep! I always see Topaz herd, or Talus herd, or- Y'know what? I'm just gonna agree and move on.
