Animal trainer is the skill associated with the animal training Template:L. An animal trainer works at Template:L, taming certain animals and turning some Template:L into war or hunting animals.

Notes

While the kennel's menu only offers the option 'train a war dog', in fact a wide range of animals can be trained. Also note that the queued task indeed is named 'train war animal'. The same goes for 'train a hunting dog'. Also, many exotic animals (signified by the Template:L tag in their Template:L) require a Template:L in the fortress to allow animal trainers to train them.

The animal to be trained is selected randomly from the list of unrestrained, uncaged, trainable animals. The only way to choose which animal gets trained is by ensuring no other trainable animal can get to the kennels, eg by tying them up or caging them.
