Remember that the search bar in this forum operates by boolean "AND" logic - the search needs to find
every word, exactly how it is spelled (although if you search for "pet" and it finds "pets" it still counts) to register as a hit, so the more words you search for at once, the
less hits you will get.
Also, be sure to check the
devpages, including the
long-term goals, as well. This one is more important than just searching the forums - no point in suggesting something Toady is already going to do, anyway.
If you look through the short-term, Toady One is basically going to start working on moving a huge number of the Fortress Mode skills into becoming Adventure Mode skills, as soon as he is finished with this Caravan Arc stuff that involves making towns larger and more dynamic. This includes buying and raising livestock, owning mounts, and also, separately, the ability to capture enemies alive. A quick search doesn't include the phrase "tame wild animals", but it certainly seems like a logical thing to be included in all the other stuff being chucked in from Fortress Mode to Adventurer Mode. In the long-term goals, there is specific mention of adventurers being able to "tame the lizards you find", so it definitely is planned, and its lack of inclusion in the devlog is likely just an oversight.
As for what people think, I doubt there is any objection to the adding of a feature that does nothing to really detract from the game, and where the major lifting for the coding has already been done for Fortress Mode, anyway. It'll probably just be ported into Adventurer mode along with all the rest of things.
Also, as a final aside, wolverines and wolves are not the same thing - wolverines are actually a rather large and aggressive cousin of badgers.
