v0.31:Domestic animal
| This article is about an older version of DF. |
Domestic Template:Ls are creatures that can be used by dwarves one way or another without taming or training, usually for security or food. Distinguished by having the [DOMESTIC] tag in the Template:L, they can be bought at Template:L or Template:Ld for with Template:Ls. Wild versions of domesticated animals (horses, muskoxen, etc) can be Template:Ld and used normally.
Every fortress expedition starts with two free domestic draft animals which pulled their Template:L to the fortress site. This can be any of the animals in the list below with the [WAGON_PULLER] tag (so any except dogs, cats and birds) which were available at embark. Embarking with a sufficient quantity of goods can potentially result in multiple wagons, each of which comes with another two animals. Fortresses have no use for wagons after embark except to break up for wood, so these animals can be slaughtered or kept for breeding and making your dwarves Template:L as pets.
The player may choose which gender of animals to bring at embark. Only one male is necessary for breeding. Template:L, you may wish to limit breeding altogether.
