This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

A huge monster that lurks in caverns deep under the earth. It uses its wide beak to reach down and pluck up unsuspecting intruders.

Jabberers are giant birdlike (but wingless and flightless) creatures with a beak.

They are very big, very aggressive, arguably more dangerous than elephants and the value of their body parts is multiplied by four, making them a prized target for your butchers. If they don't butcher your dwarves first, of course. It takes only 1 year for a Jabberer to reach adulthood, and 2 to reach its maximum size. Combined with its massive size, they provide an unmatched yield if bred for their byproducts.

Jabberers have a very high pet value of 1500, and make excellent bodyguards. Due to their size and natural weapons, they also make up a good line of defense. Being exotic, though, they may prove to be difficult to tame. However, with a decent trainer, one can have a domestic stock in just a few years due to fast maturation.

In the preferences of some dwarves you can read that they like jabberers "for their frightening beaks".

Jabberers may be used as a mount by goblin siegers, and will rip apart dwarves given the opportunity. Consider using traps instead of military dwarves to kill them.
