A character did die from drinking river water without boiling it.

I don’t think so. There’s no deer hunting.

father and son hunt a deer in episode 4

Not big enough to feed the wagon train.

That's what they have the cattle for. Remember those Germans that they're helping can't hunt or fight.

There weren’t cattle in The 1987 version. You just shoot deer and maybe bears

I just finished this series, and I feel like it was more a live-action adaptation of the Oregon Trail computer game than it was a Yellowstone origin story. I sure hope 1923 is better.
