Yes, I checked - everyone involved was tame. WTF?

Is it a bug? Is it something that happens when grass gets scarce (note - there was still grass in several places)? How can I make it not happen again? Only *I* get to kill my Stray Baby Llamas, damnit.

I've been noticing my war dogs infighting when I'm not being assaulted by rhesus macaques and turkey hens. It's kind of a problem, since my 79 dogs were literally the only things I embarked with and my primary means of defense, but surprisingly enough, none of them are dead, just incredibly scarred. I'm not sure if dogs actually get tougher from training as they fight, but if so, by the end of this I expect them to be an indestructible army of barking death machines. Two in particular, Ingish and Zasit, provide me with daily battle reports of 'The war dog bites the war dogs in the unmentionables, tearing the skin and bruising the tissue. The war dogs latches on firmly'. Coincidentally, 78 of them are female.

This isn't a bug - it's intended behavior. Animals don't like being crowded. Make bigger pastures.

For dogs, it's probably an issue with your meeting area being too small.

Ok, I know that it's not always best to chastise people for asking the same question repeatedly, but this is the SAME exact question several times a day!  Use the search bar you've got up there!

Short answer: Animals get cranky if they're pushed into a small enclosure for too long.  No more 1x1 kitten pits.  Well, actually yes to those, they'll kill each other.  No dog or cow pits though, your breeding stock will kill each other.

So in short, you can now organize cock fights since both cranky animals and chickens have been implemented. Or kitten death matches.

EDIT: darn, now I wish you could get animals to equip items so you could put spurs on the chickens and such.

Um, I did search. It seemed like the kind of thing that would have been asked by now, but the search returned nothing relevant. Thanks for the answer, though. Feel free to close this thread.

Okay, while I'm here, I'd like to also ask whether only certain creatures train up attributes, and if so, which ones?

I believe only creatures with [CAN_LEARN] in their raws can learn skills and up attributes.

If anyone has the ability to lock this thread, it's you. Other than the mods, nobody else can.

Yeah, that's the way it works.
