English:
As soon as you get explosive arrows this becomes pretty easy. Simply equip them and shoot any animal with an explosive arrow.

German:
Sobald ihr die Explosiv-Pfeile habt, rüstet diese aus und erschießt damit ein beliebiges Tier.

This is best done with explosive arrows and you unlock them automatically near the end of the story. Simply fast travel to an area with lots of animals e.g. Geothermal Valley then use an explosive arrow to kill an animal.

This achievement is self-explanatory from its description. Simply find any animal - rabbits and squirrels will be most frequently encountered - and fire at them using explosive ammunition, e.g., grenade arrows, to unlock the achievement.

I did this as soon as you're able to make shrapnel bombs. In that big open area with the logging camp where all the different animals to hunt are. Just craft a bomb and throw it at a deer or pack of wolves. You get access to the shrapnel bombs a lot earlier in the game, then the explosive arrows.

Personally, at a Soviet base, I made a bomb with shrapnel from a tin can and threw it at a hare, flew out.

You can also get it using an explosive arrow by killing absolutely any animal.

You can throw a grenade launcher at a bunch of chickens, for example...

Works in both endurance and joint endurance modes.
I did it by accident, threw the canister at the squirrel and fired, the trophy fell out immediately. Joint Endurance Mode

Easiest to obtain with an explosive arrow. As soon as we get these arrows, blow up any animal (squirrel, hare, deer, etc.).
