[[Dwarf]], [[human]] and [[elf]] civilizations have access to the same variety of domestic animals, which are listed below. [[Goblin]]s can't use these, but rather have access to domesticated [[beak dog]]s, which dwarves can only access by capturing in the wild or as [[Mission|spoils of war]]. Meanwhile, [[kobold]]s and subterranean [[animal people]] have no 'domestic' animals at all. | [[Dwarf]], [[human]] and [[elf]] civilizations have access to the same variety of domestic animals, which are listed below.

| − | Every embark starts with two free, randomly | + | Every embark starts with two free, randomly selected domestic '''draft animals''' which arrive with the [[Wagon (embark)|wagon]] at the fortress site. These can be any of the animals in the list below which are available at embark that have the {{token|WAGON_PULLER}} tag ''(i.e. [[horse]]s, [[yak]]s and [[water buffalo]]es)''. Note that the two animals do not (intentionally) come as a "matched pair", and so may not be from the same species. Embarking with a sufficient quantity of goods can result in multiple wagons, each of which comes with another pair of randomly selected animals. Since fortresses cannot move their wagons ''after'' embark, these "draft" animals can be [[Butcher|slaughtered]] or kept for breeding, or can become [[pet]]s for making certain dwarves [[preferences|happy]]. |
