They tend to be rather weak and cowardly, even in packs, and are not especially aggressive. They '''can''', however, maim or even kill an unarmed [[dwarf]] on a lucky hit, but are generally the least dangerous of all underground creatures. They are still annoying, because they will often interrupt your dwarves who perform useful jobs down in the caverns. Thanks to their numbers, wild crundles can be useful for [[Live training|training]] your [[military]].

Crundles seem to have a chance to spawn inside procedural [[fortress]]es in [[adventure mode]]. If you are [[No Exert|immune to exhaustion]], have [[copper]] [[armor]] and can somehow [[wrestling|grab]] several of them, you can very quickly increase your various combat [[attribute]]s, more importantly dodging and shield skill, by letting them attack you if you cannot access the surface due to the [[site]] isolating itself from it. Basically, they are like the flightless birds of the [[cavern]]s.

If you rely on traps to defend your fortress, it should be noted that [[trap design|pit traps]] are fairly ineffective against crundles. They require a long fall to be killed on impact, unless, of course, the ground is flooded with [[syndrome|poison]], [[Trap#Upright_Spear.2FSpike|spikes]], or best of all, [[magma]]. They can be caught in [[cage trap]]s, and [[weapon trap]]s with basic weapons are generally enough to severely injure or kill them.
