A creature from the evil swamp. It resembles a squat, wingless bird with powerful beak and legs. Its blotchy skin is brightly colored.

Beak dogs are gorilla-sized pack hunters found in evil swamplands. They fill the same ecological niche as wolves, albeit more freakishly.

Even if your fort is not founded in a beak dog biome, they may appear at your gates as mounts for goblin siegers.

Dwarves cannot tame beak dogs. The only thing to do with beak dogs is kill and process them. As a nice perk, their parts are worth twice as much as boring dog parts.

Toady has said that they are based on a variety of sources: [1]
