I asked the humans to send my fortress some leather (in particular, I asked them for leather that my dwarves can't get, like whale and raccoon leather.)

What I got was:
20 mermaid leather (shouldn't this be something that only evil civs do?)
30 chimera leather (must've been a good year for hunting mythical creatures)
30 ant leather (those must be some small pelts!)
30 firefly leather (it glows!)
30 beetle leather
20 large roach chitin
20 monarch butterfly leather (ooh, pretty)
20 wagon leather (I hear those wild wagons are tough to bring down!)
40 plump helmet cloth (is where anything plump helmets can't do?)

Now, on the one hand, it's pretty cool getting some exotic leather, like the mermaid and chimera, since I finally got to sell off thousands (17341* to be exact) of monies worth of bone crafts I'd been making for years and years.
On the other, I very much doubt that this is intended behavior.

Wowwww...  okay.  So, the agreement indices seem to be slightly off.  I'll set up a report and check it.

This sounds hilarious.

LOL!  Beetle Leather?!  :eek:   These kind of beetles must have gone extinct in the wild, old west - the kind cowboys used to ride.  What would a beetle leather jacket look like?  Or a beetle leather wallet!?  

Man this is too funny!

My most recent human caravan brought me a barrel containing 1 unit of gnomeblight.

It smelled kinda interesting, so I bought it.

I got some mermaid leather as well.

My Baron has a bag fetish.. And a mermaid fetish.  Guess what I did...

Put him in the sack, and threw him in the river?

Insect leather wasn't on purpose?  But my dwarves really *like* their roach chitin armor and their ant leather bags.  :-)

They haven't made anything out of the wagon leather yet.
