A huge monster shaped like an aye-aye.

Giant aye-ayes are the super-sized counterpart to the common aye-aye found in tropical broadleaf forests. Giant aye-ayes are a little larger than grizzly bears, but not as aggressive as those, instead fleeing any conflict. Only appearing rarely in a small subset of biomes, giant aye-ayes are among the more elusive animals in Dwarf Fortress.

Due to their size, they yield a decent amount of returns when butchered, but the aforementioned rarity can make it difficult to obtain a breeding pair for a sustainable meat production. Giant aye-ayes are exotic mounts, and can rarely be ridden by elves in a siege.

Some dwarves like giant aye-ayes for their interesting fingers.

"Their fingers are like tree trunks!" - A dwarf's final words after encountering this very creature.
