Most animal shelters are an inefficient use of space. While there you might as well put all the animals into one cage and melt the others down to turn into spikes.
Fun Fact:  I initially read this suggestion as advocating melting down the extra animals at the shelter to make spikes from their bodies.  If that interpretation is wrong, then I don't want to be right.

Bah, you don't want a Home Depot pick.  You want a REAL pick!  Something made of trifle pewter, and some hanging rings...  bone, yeah.  Hanging rings of bone!  Oh and some of those, those um...  shining bars.  Thread... yes...

You go down to the hardware store.  Not that Home Depot merchant.  No, go down to the store with the anvil and that old farmer sitting there repairing hatchets!  Then you elbow him in the face and shove that old guy out!  You've got a motherfuckin' pick to make, dammit!  Who cares if your boss is upset that you suddenly left work?  Not you!  You've got an idea, and it's the BEST IDEA EVER!

That didn't last long, huh? Shame, cause binary's cool. Anyway, an important message: I will be changing my names on every username based thing I use to ASCIt on/around 10/1. Consolidating, I guess you could say.

This explains everything!  All of those questions that I could never answer...  Why am I in this deep hole?  Why am I eating asbestos?  Why am I a man?  Why is it currently the 50's?!  It all makes sense!

Also, I tend to believe that Cave would be jealous of my ideas, such as the Turkeycage of Horrors.  And yes, we're on a first name basis, me 'n Cave.

Now if only I knew where to get some bones...
Slaughtering my herd of animals and dropping 100+ goblins and wild animals down a 14z high chute worked fine. I can make goblin bone bolts as long as the goblin isnīt "intact".

(Off-topic) 
Is that the trick?  Thank you.  I've had some goblin bone bolts in my fort that I had no idea where I found them, and I was about to start pointless and cruel experimentation to find out. 
Oh well, no sense stopping perfectly good !!scientific!! sadism just because I know the results.

Specifically, if I recall correctly, it's the body parts not being attached to the main part of the body, which cannot be butchered. Ergo, bigger drops mean bigger returns in gobbo bits.

Yep, standard dwarf ethics forbits butchering goblin corpses, but says nothing on the subject of butchering goblin gibs.

Specifically attached to the upper body.  A severed head is fair game.

I think this thread has a higher density of quoted material than any other on the forum.
