Frost elk
Colony game at restWild game on the Fortress map has its own colony health and hunting rules. Its carcass can be butchered for the yields listed here.
| Mode | Fortress colonies with hunting. Adventure wildlife uses separate statistics and taming rules. |
|---|---|
| Health | 100 in newly founded colonies using the current combat scale. Older hunting colonies retain 44. |
| Biomes | Tundra, Taiga. These are eligible biome pools, not a guaranteed animal at every site. |
| Herd size | 2 to 3 before the remaining local game capacity is applied. |
| Meat from one carcass | 9 Raw meat. Current colony health scaling does not multiply this yield. |
| Hide from one carcass | 2 Hide when the colony has forge support. Older colonies without that support omit hide. |
| Fighting back | This wild game type does not have the Boar’s charge and gore behaviour. |
| Hunter selection | A free hunter with a loaded ranged weapon is preferred over an unarmed worker. An unarmed worker can still be eligible when no such ranged hunter is free. |
| Fresh carcass | One carcass is left by the successful hunting kill. Its warm freshness budget is 2 days. Cold conditions use freshness at one third of the warm rate. |
