They will pose as a nuisance more then a threat, and are likely to cause mass cancellation spam from anyone working above ground. Tight groups of 5-10 will appear, and haphazardly fly around. They will not attack a dwarf on sight, and can be [[attack|dispatched]] by your [[military]] fairly easily. In combat, they can overpower and kill an unarmored dwarf unlucky enough to be caught. Fortunately, they will not actively pursue a dwarf as it flees, and will often use its large wings which inflict much less severe injuries then its beak or talons. |
They make a poor choice for your [[egg_production|egg industry]], with a clutch size of only 2-4, but a very manageable addition to your [[meat industry]] if bred. It takes only one year for hatchlings to fully mature; however, with a pet value of 500, they may be worth more as pets in your [[zoo]], then as roasts and [[trade_good|crafts]]. They are considered exotic animals, and your [[Animal_trainer|trainers]] will have no initial knowledge of their habits. | They make a poor choice for your [[egg_production|egg industry]], with a clutch size of only 2-4, but a very manageable addition to your [[meat industry]] if bred.
