Expedition leaders don't need anything fancy, however Mayors do, and your Expedition leader will be your first Mayor (Mayors are elected every summer by the dwarves, fun fact) once you hit 50 dwarves, so you should probably carve out a dining room and office for them, as well as supplant their current bedroom with something fancier. As for the cavern, dig deeper till you hit floor level. And close off your stairs that lead into it, nasty things could fly up there. As a matter of fact, unless you have a strongish (10 moderately well trained and equipped dwarves) military, I wouldn't recommend breaching the caverns quite yet.

Use the (B) command, then go to (C)

Then press (X), and build your staircase to the caverns :P

Your tame animals will exchange blows with each other if they don't have enough room. Do you have many animals assigned to a small pasture or room?

If you're talking about wild animals attacking your tame animals, then that's perfectly normal.

Only animals that really need a pasture are grazers. More info. It's advisable to give your grazing animals individual pastures (so a single animal on a 5xt5 rather than four animals on 10x10 pasture) as they may still run into similar problems as above.

Your nongrazing animals will be just fine as they are. Though in the absence of rope, you can designate a 1x1 pasture on your entrance and assign a guard animal to it (any nongrazer will do) to spot thieves and ambushes.

Graphics pack? That makes things considerably more complicated.

on a side note, try "DF gameplay questions" next time. It wont actually change reaction time or friendliness, but its the right place for questions on gameplay mechanics
