This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

Creatures in the game possess a body composed of body parts. Ghosts being a notable exception. These bodies can be composed of bones, limbs, shells, hooves, hair, teeth, and other pieces. Corpses, tame, trained, or trapped animals may be butchered at a butcher's shop, yielding these parts as individual items. The stocks menu has a "Body parts" category that lists all such inedible parts, rotten or otherwise.

Also battles may cause a loss of a body part causing a total loss of its function.
