The first thing to know if you wonder how to hunt an infected animal is that there are several places where you can find animals. They can be chickens, wolves or wild boars, any of the three can be infected. A good place to look for animals in Fortnite is outside the East Entrance / Exit of Pleasant Park, where you will find wild animals, which could be infected.

But how do you know if you are infected, by the blue / purple colored parasite stuck on your body.

You can shoot the animal using a pistol or your melee weapon. But you must bear in mind that when the parasite separates from the animal it will jump on you if you get too close, so keep in mind that these parasites drain your health.
