− | + | '''Domestic animals''' are [[creature]]s that can be used by a [[civilization]] one way or another without any [[Animal training|training]] required, usually for security or food. Distinguished by having the {{token|COMMON_DOMESTIC}} tag in the [[raw file|raws]], they can be bought at [[embark]] or [[trade]]d for with [[caravan]]s. Wild versions of domesticated animals ([[horse]]s, [[muskox]]en, etc.) can be captured in [[cage]] [[trap]]s and receive training, which will turn them completely tame afterwards. | |
− | [[Dwarf]] | + | [[Dwarf]] and [[human]] civilizations have access to the same variety of domestic animals, which are listed below. [[Goblin]]s can't use these, but rather have access to domesticated [[beak dog]]s, which dwarves can only access by capturing in the wild or as [[Mission|spoils of war]]. Meanwhile, [[Elf|elves]], [[kobold]]s and subterranean [[animal people]] have no domestic animals - despite elves having access to [[unicorn]]s and potentially every other surface creature, they'll only use them as war beasts and never as actual livestock. |
− | Every embark starts with two free, randomly | + | Every embark starts with two free, randomly selected domestic '''draft animals''' which arrive with the [[Wagon (embark)|wagon]] at the fortress site. These can be any of the animals in the list below which are available at embark that have the {{token|WAGON_PULLER}} tag ''(i.e. [[horse]]s, [[yak]]s and [[water buffalo]]es)''. Note that the two animals do not (intentionally) come as a "matched pair", and so may not be from the same species. Embarking with a sufficient quantity of goods can result in multiple wagons, each of which comes with another pair of randomly selected animals. Since fortresses cannot move their wagons ''after'' embark, these "draft" animals can be [[Butcher|slaughtered]] or kept for breeding, or can become [[pet]]s for making certain dwarves [[preferences|happy]]. |
− | When purchasing* draft animals at embark, the player may choose which gender of animals | + | When purchasing* draft animals at embark, the player may choose which gender of animals. Only one male is necessary for breeding. [[cat|Depending on the animal]], you may wish to limit breeding altogether, or assign a [[gelder]]. |

All milkable mammals give the same value | + | When butchered, all adult domestic mammals yield one [[skull]] and one [[leather|raw hide]]. All milkable mammals give the same value [[milk]] and appear to be milkable at the same frequency. The embark costs shown apply to both adults and juveniles of either sex. All domestic mammals reach adolescence at 1 year and adulthood at 2 years, except [[Cavy|cavies]], which take half as long. All [[Grazer|grazing]] animals require a [[pasture]]; the lower the 'grazer' value, the larger the size of the required pasture. |
