‼Cages‼

How do you let things out of cages? I used to know how but alas I have forgotten. Thanks for your help. I have some burning cages from the caravan. and I would really like to get some animals before they are dead freed.

You need to build them first and unassign them from its q menu. Being on fire however... good luck.

You could also assign whatever's inside the cages to a pit, pasture, or restraint.

I commend your use of proper ‼  You are a proper dwarf.  The fact that you used these to describe flaming cages with live animals inside only proves your dwarfhood.

Quickest way is to make a pit and toss the animal in.  Slower and more dangerous to the dwarves is to build the cage and deconstruct it.  Perhaps more relevant is to build a staircase beside the cage, and designate a pond zone, so that someone dumps water onto the cage.
