− | '''Elk birds''' are large flightless birds | + | '''Elk birds''' are large flightless birds that can be used as a mount by [[goblin]] siegers. Though they are generally non-hostile, they will interrupt tasks throughout the fortress and, if engaged, will usually kill an untrained dwarf (or even a war dog) in one-on-one combat. |
− | + | Butchering an Elk Bird will also result in a single [[feather]]. | |
− | [[ | + | Unlike [[elk]], both genders of elk bird have [[horn]]s. This is nice, because elk bird parts are worth even more than elk parts, with a [[value]] multiplier of three. |
− | + | Tamed elk birds require a [[pasture]] to survive; however, due to their dual status as grazers ''and'' egg-layers, they will prefer to claim a [[nest box]] and sit on it until they starve to death.{{bug|4637}} It is possible for the eggs to hatch quickly enough for the mother to survive (and thus allow them to hatch at all), but it is in no way guaranteed to happen. Starvation can be prevented by placing a [[nest box]] just outside of the pasture. Dwarves will return roosting Elk Birds to their pen and the eggs will hatch unsupervised. | |
