i think they sodomized it with one of their wooden swords

I fail to see how you arrived at this conclusion, given the damage is mostly in the upper body.

Frankly I'm a little terrified.

http://dwarffortresswiki.net/index.php/Wound

According to the wiki you can't bruise most of those parts, then again it also claims its impossible to remove most of those parts...

What you'v got here my friend is an empty goat. I reckon there's an elf hidden in the inside and its an attempt at an infiltration!

Really? I haven't seen guts or lungs bruised personally, but I've seen all the others bruised many a time. I'd have to guess bruising; some of these parts are instakill if removed. Though admittedly I have no clue how the bruising is all interior rather than exterior. Maybe there's coding for "breathing freezing air" or something? Unlikely.

if your eyes are exposed to freezing air then they are badly bruised and it limits ur vision in adventure mode

I can see it. I don't want to see it, but I can see the logic involved, such as it is. The injured areas, as far as I can tell, run through the torso, from the tail to the head. With a sufficiently long sword and sufficient craziness, an elf could cause all these injuries by sodomizing a mountain goat with a wooden sword. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need a large drink to wash that image out of my brain.

That looks light grey, rather than dark.

Elves do it in trees. Humans do it in wooden structures. Dwarves? Dwarves do it underground. With magma.

I think they're bruised mate. Is it conscious? Because removing a brain causes unconsciousness (heh, try doing it with an active save!).

I have a couple of dwarves with brain/spine bruising, just to confirm it can happen.

Brain and spine bruises don't, and I've had more than one case where bruising hasn't gone away for a ridiculous amount of time, even years.

Has it rained recently? If the elves traveled in a thunder storm and the cage was metal...

Is it possible to change the color of the different grades of wounds? If so, change "missing" to purple or something and check it out.

Of course, if this goat is in fact missing its internal organs, then I would suggest that those organs were replaced by clockwork. That's no goat; its a robot!

This is starting to sound less like a fortress of drunken lunatics and more like a really bad sci-fi movie.

I don't think that it's impossible that they gave you a wounded goat. I've gotten cages from the elves that were presumably empty, but in fact contained random animal corpses.
