How do you get your military to kill tamed creatures? They don't show up on the list of targets nor can they be selected.

Went out and handily slaughtered the humans running around in circles on the edge of the map. Then a roc appeared immediately afterward and I killed it in two seconds, causing an elite marksdwarf to name his copper crossbow.

Now, if I keep killing the humans who show up will they keep sending larger forces? They don't seem to want to attack the fort but I'm assuming they'll go after any caravans that come along....

That sounds like basic Siege protocol; don't let anyone trade and hope that they don't have farms inside the city walls.  Human sieges won't be worth much until they bring catapults...

And when you build your fortress walls from the bones of skeletal elephants, slain my weapons forged from melted goblin plunder, fed on cattle that graze on grass that blinks.  Then, you will know dwarfdom.
