Apparently siezed tigermen can be butchered...
« on: February 23, 2012, 09:05:40 pm »

Exactly as the title says. I am able to butcher the tiger man that I seized from the elves. He also has bone doctor skills :o

EDIT: I'm going to see if I can train him into a war animal...

Thank you everyone for the help! I've since flooded the fortress I was working on and now have a new one going up.

Are you sure the dwarves are actually butchering them?  You can designate them for butchering, but unless you've modded your ethics the dwarves will never actually get around to doing it.

Oh. Well, I'd rather not risk it, I only have one :P.

I can assign him as a pet though, so I will test that.

Oh yes, I will most definitely be making him mayor. Is it possible to assign beds and stuff to animal people?

I don't think you can give it a room or anything like that just make sure it has food and a source of water and it should live happily among the dwarves.. On the note of butchering the Tigerman, if you do the dwarves won't eat it they will take the corpse to the graveyard stock pile or just leave it in the butcher's shop.
