Turtle shells!?!

After about 100 world gens I finally found Turtles as a usable fish! WHY is it so unlikely?

Because temperature is currently glitched, and the majority of catchable fish vermin are cooked to death upon embark.

What I wanna know, is why are cave fish/cave shrimp listed twice on embark?  It never saves my shrimp choice, so I always have to manually re-add to my embark profile.

I believe it's a symptom of the new caste system. Male and female are listed separately, even when buying dead ones!

The Elves were beautiful, Mistral Thrax admitted, in and elvish way, but it was his belief that the gods grew disappointed after a time because the elves -- being elves -- were essentially decorative but not particularly functional.
