They are fully capable of massacring dozens of unarmed dwarves due to their large size, and their disposition to [[building_destroyer#Dangerous_Fun_Variety|destroy buildings]] will draw them into contact with fortresses, where they will topple [[furniture]] and wreck [[workshop]]s in their path. Yetis can equip items and open unlocked [[door]]s, though the former is not typically seen in normal play and the latter is normally ignored as the yeti will simply destroy the whole door instead of opening it. |

However, since they have a relatively low population number, no more than 5-10 yetis will spawn before they become [[extinct]] in your [[biome]]. Despite their humanoid physiology, yetis are not intelligent and your dwarves will gleefully [[butcher]] them into [[food]] and [[bone]]s for crafting. Items made from yeti parts are [[Item value|worth]] 3 times more than those of your standard [[domestic animal]]s. | ||
Yetis can be captured with [[cage]] [[trap]]s, but cannot be [[Animal trainer|trained]]. If the player doesn't want to butcher them for meat, their extremely long lifespan can make them valuable as permanent decorations for your fortress. | Yetis can be captured with [[cage]] [[trap]]s, but cannot be [[Animal trainer|trained]].
