- A huge monster in the form of a bushtit.
Giant bushtits are giant animal versions of common bushtits found in savage temperate forests. They are much more interesting than their mundane vermin basal creatures; they're quite large, growing to be slightly larger than a full-grown lion, and appear in clusters of five to ten individuals.
Being large, tamable, egg-laying, breeding creatures, they are very much worth capturing and taming, and given their large cluster numbers and a bit of luck you'll be able to hook a breeding pair. With five to thirteen eggs laid per clutch, giant bushtits can be used to establish an exotic egg farm; with a very nice distribution of meat products (if without a value multiplier), they can be made the basis of a strong meat industry; and with a perhaps surprisingly high pet value of 500, they can be made into excellent happiness vehicles for your fortress.
As a savage exotic mount that can fly, they may cause problems on the very small chance of a giant bushtit equipped elven siege.
Some dwarves prefer them for their somewhat great size (offhand insult?) and twittering groups.

This article or section has been rated D for Dwarf. It may include witty humour, not-so-witty humour, bad humour, in-jokes, pop culture references, and references to the Bay12 forums. Don't believe everything you read, and if you miss some of the references, don't worry. It was inevitable. |
A little known fact to dwarves is that human men will chase these creatures to the end of the earth, seeking little else than to rub a bar of *Anaconda Soap* on them.
