Run the noexotics mod (search the forum for it) and make a new mod. Enjoy embarking with cave crocodiles.

I just put [USE_ANY_PET_RACE] on the dwarven entity. Giant cave spiders ahoy!

Yeah I sold 80% of my skills and food just so I could have a pair of cave crocs.

Adding [PET] to any creature's raws will allow you to tame that creature, and this can be done to an existing save. (It even applies to creatures that are already on your map when you make the edit.)

Adding [COMMON_DOMESTIC] to a creature's raws will allow you to embark with that creature and request it from the traders, so long as it has at least one of the following tags: [PET], [MOUNT], [PACK_ANIMAL], [WAGON_PULLER]. I suspect that this requires a new world in order to take effect.

You might also want to add the [TRAINABLE] tag, which allows an animal to be war- or hunting-trained. This works the same way that [PET] does.

Dying (ceasing to be alive) is also not a Moodable skill. Even totally unskilled Dwarves seem to do it correctly.

Not sure about world gen.

But you need to go into entity_default, go to MOUNTAIN civilization. Then put [USE_ANY_PET_RACE] in.
