:( I don't think they can during worldgen... Maybe semi-megas can?

They last about 3 times as long if you give them [NO_PAIN], [CAN_LEARN] and remove some organs, also giving the appropriate [NO_WHATEVER].  Size helps too.

It is probably best to ask modding questions in the modding forum below, there are lots of people there that can answer your questions.

Your answer is that you need to remove [MEGABEAST] token from them.

So, I saw this title and officially claim the typo as my rapper name.

Yo yo, 'dis be Megabeatz breakin' it down for y'all! Megabeatz sez yo' megabeasts not gangsta' enough to breed unless yo take dat funky [MEGABEAST] tag off, yo! But den they ain't gonn be megabeasts, they just gonn be normal animals! Ain't no way to make a megabeast breed without removing its specially gangsta' status as a megabeast! I advise openin' up a can o' [CAN_LEARN] all up on that gangsta world.

MEGABEATZ OUT.

(There is a story behind this. . .)

This is an Alder Omelette. All craftsdwarfship is of highest quality. It is encircled with bands of cheese. It menaces with spikes of bacon, ham, and peppers. On the object is an image of dwarves in egg white. The dwarves are eating.

You need to make said elf leather into the most amazing work of art.  Embed it with every kind of gem you have, stud it with metals, and sew images into it.  Erect a shrine outside your fort with that in the center.  Let the elves know that you view their very skin as naught more but a medium for your dwarves to work on.

This ranks second to "Apply more magma" as the most frequent answer to questions on this forum. And sadly, my college life.

Your college is built next to an active volcano?  Where are you, Hawaii?

Personally, I like [DF] because after climbing the damned learning cliff, I'm too elitist to consider not liking it.
