[[File:v50_grazing_preview.png|thumb|right|The grass tastes exactly like ramen to them.]]Tame '''grazing''' animals (those with the {{token|STANDARD_GRAZER}} token) require a constant source of [[grass]] or [[cave moss]] to survive. [[Pasture]]s are currently the easiest such source, however care must be taken to ensure that the pasture is large enough to provide food for all the assigned animals (and any auto-assigned babies). Other sources are [[Animal caretaker|animal caretakers]] feeding chained/caged creatures, and dwarves feeding their [[pet]]s.

Tame '''grazing''' animals (those with the GRAZER token) require a constant source of grass or cave moss to survive. [[Pasture]]s are currently the easiest such source, however care must be taken to ensure that the pasture is large enough to provide food for all the assigned animals (and any auto-assigned babies).

Grazing animals use the {{token|STANDARD_GRAZER}} which calculates a value from this formula:
+
Grazing animals use the [GRAZER:<value>] token to signify how much grass they need to eat.  This is an inverse number - the value in grazer signifies how much hunger is reduced when eating a unit of grass. (Hunger increases every tick; a creature dies when it reaches 100,000). A creature with ten times the grazer value needs one tenth the amount of grass (and hence, pasture land) as a creature with a small grazer value. If you started your fortress in an undead biome, you may need to assign more space for a pasture as much of the grass is dead. Animals will not eat dead grass and will only eat the still living patches.
−
 
 
−
GRAZER = 20000 &times; G &times; (max size)<sup>-3/4</sup>
 
−
 
 
−
'''''G''' can be set in d_init or the game tab in settings, listed as Grazing Coefficient (100 by default)''
 
−
 
 
−
'''''max size''' is the maximum size a creature can reach, divided by 10.''
 
  
−
''The minimum resulting GRAZER value is capped at 150, the maximum at 3 million.''
+
Animals which graze are typically good livestock candidates, as many of them can be [[milk]]ed and 3 also can be [[shear]]ed for [[wool]]. Creatures with larger sizes consume more grass, but also produce more meat when [[butcher]]ed.
  
−
For custom creatures, you could also set the value directly with the {{token|GRAZER|cr|<value>}} token.  In either case, this is an inverse number - the GRAZER value signifies how much hunger is reduced when eating a unit of grass. (Hunger increases every tick; a creature dies when it reaches 100,000). A creature with ten times the grazer value needs one tenth the amount of grass (and hence, pasture land) as a creature with a small grazer value. Because of this, it may be wise to give larger animals grazing areas separate from other animals, as the larger animals are likely to not leave enough grass for other animals, which can lead to them starving. If you started your fortress in an undead biome, you may need to assign more space for a pasture, as much of the grass is dead - animals will not eat dead grass and will only eat the still-living patches.
+
Each [[time]] unit adds one point to hunger.  An animal takes an average of one turn per ten time units, and takes one time unit to eat grass. If there were an unlimited amount of grass on a tile, even animals with [GRAZER:1] would be able to feed themselves, however, there are at most 4 bunches of grass. Therefore, a creature of standard speed and agility with [GRAZER:3] would not be able to survive, and creatures with [GRAZER:4] require a constant source of grass (in other words infinite sized pastures) to survive. In practice, anything with [GRAZER:20] or less is eventually incapable of feeding itself. Because of this, the larger creatures like [[draltha]]s are virtually impossible to keep fed, and [[elephant]]s are incapable of feeding themselves fast enough to stave off starvation. {{bug|4113}}

Animals which graze are typically good livestock candidates, as many of them can be [[milk]]ed and three also can be [[shear]]ed for [[wool]]. Creatures with larger sizes consume more grass, but also produce more meat when [[butcher]]ed. Grazing animals who are pets will occasionally be fed by their owners, allowing them to roam free without the need of a pasture, however this is unreliable due to pet feeding being a very low-priority job, often leading to these pets starving and possibly dying if not supervised.  If grazing animals consume all the grass on a tile, the tile will be reverted to the base layer material, which may be [[sand]], [[clay]] or [[soil]]. In this way, you receive a visual clue as to the size of the pasture required.

Take the following numbers with a grain of salt; they ignore the differing abilities of various biomes to replenish grass and are instead based on a rule of thumb that 20000=Grazer*Required_tiles. Usually you can get along with way smaller pastures. Nevertheless, a fairly large herd can cause overgrazing fast, so keep an eye out for hungry animals and desolate [[grass]]less pastures.
