:::I set a fisherdwarf to work near a small pond inhabited by 5 carp (and nothing else). As he walked along the edge, one of the carp bit at him and he dodged into the water and was subsequently torn apart by the carp. By the time he died, there were ''thirty-six'' Dwarf chunks in the water, along with a '''severed left lower leg''', and one of the carp had been given a name. As I ordered all of my other dwarves to go fishing in said pond, they were also attacked and died rather quickly - the last one had both his throat and left eye torn out. While they may not be deadly in a river (they seem to prefer to flee), in a pond they will consider themselves to be cornered and will attack with surprising strength (note that they still do 1-'''6''' bite damage, so they haven't been entirely fixed). Also, please '''sign your comments''' (by placing <nowiki>--~~~~</nowiki> at the end, and ideally by first creating a user account and logging in). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 13:09, 28 October 2009 (UTC) | :::I set a fisherdwarf to work near a small pond inhabited by 5 carp (and nothing else).

:::As a side note, the fact that carp do the same damage as other fish does not mean that they are weak, but rather that '''all''' (non-vermin) fish are dangerous - carp are just the most well known, because while a [[pike (fish)|pike]] or [[longnose gar]] is definitely dangerous (they both have lots of teeth), a mere carp shouldn't be anywhere near as powerful. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 15:53, 28 October 2009 (UTC) | :::As a side note, the fact that carp do the same damage as other fish does not mean that they are weak, but rather that '''all''' (non-vermin) fish are dangerous - carp are just the most well known, because while a [[pike (fish)|pike]] or [[longnose gar]] is definitely dangerous (they both have lots of teeth), a mere carp shouldn't be anywhere near as powerful. --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 15:53, 28 October 2009 (UTC) | ||
