  • Thrumbos can also be ridden, providing a speed factor of 1.6 to their rider, though they will refuse to carry packs.
  • All of the current pack animals in the game are herbivorous. As a result, provided the season and terrain allow, they can sustain themselves through grazing while in a caravan.
  • The higher the hunger rate, the more the animal eats, Be careful about bringing many animals or large animals such as Elephants on long winter trips when it is too cold for them to graze.
