Anyone unnamed is not mentioned, so if the tigermen can't talk, the only way they will be mentioned in legends is if they kill something important and get a title

Legends Mode automatically assigns names to civilized creatures even if the lack the CAN_SPEAK tag.

It was also designed to track the everyday doings of insignificant beings in minutiae, leading to this result. This is partially why legends mode is often described as a chore to slog through.

well, there are tens of TM for each other race representant...
most strange is that it looks like its counting common professions as necessary to become a legend leading to: [insert name here] son of [parents name here] has become a woodcutter/animal caretaker/fisher/miner... in [year]
the legends are showing common citizens as legends...

Because they took a part of it. It doesn't show only "heroes", it shows any creature which did something.

Profession change is a deed in DF.
