Elephants can be tamed but cannot be [[kennel|trained]] -- the only "war animals" presently available in the game are [[dog]]s. Elephants maintain their previous behaviors-- they run from or ignore threats unless attacked. | Elephants can be tamed but cannot be [[kennel|trained]] -- the only "war animals" presently available in the game are [[dog]]s.

Having swarms of wild elephants outside your fortress can be a good thing. [[Marksdwarf]]s receive a load of experience for hitting an elephant with a [[bolt]], usually bumping their marksdwarf skill a few levels before killing one. [[Trade]]rs will pay a LOT for even an untamed elephant, so they make good trade items. Elephant produce a stack of 16 [[bone]]s when [[butcher]]ed, and these can be used to make a stack of 80 bone bolts, meaning your marksdwarfs will have plenty of shots before needing to gather more [[ammo]]. | Having swarms of wild elephants outside your fortress can be a good thing.
