Animal Men

I've been playing around with some of the raws lately, and a fortress of mine had an underground river.  Using some cage traps, I caught several snakemen and added the [PET_EXOTIC] tag on so I could tame them once I got my Dungeon Master noble.  After doing so, I've noticed that the tamed snakemen talk to each other (They gained social skills when I had all of them in a single cage), and recently another one went to sleep (Right before I intended to drop a few olm-men in to see how they gained combat XP.  Oh, well).  My question is, will they need to drink and eat as well?  I noticed them wandering around the well, but since you can't view their actions it's a bit difficult to tell.  Also, normally when you abandon your fortress, all the tame animals die.  Will this be the case with any of my tamed snakemen?  I can envision my adventurer running around the goblin towers, half a dozen snakemen in tow, but from experience the just seem to automatically die.
