Self-replicating muskox
« on: October 30, 2007, 08:41:00 am »
Just what the title says : my muskox gave birth to a muskox calf even though I only had one muskox and there are no other muskoxes on the map.

Perhaps she was pregnant when you arrived? How long had it been since you arrived?

Did the dwarven caravan happen to come with a muskox?

Indeed, they came with muskoxes. The mystery is solved then.

I just had the same thing happen to a groundhog. No other groundhogs on the map and mine just had pups. I don't think the traders had any either, I usually buy all their cages.

I just had my only dog give birth to puppies too.
