Can't give an unofficial ruling but having kept animals in these sea ice challenges I can say it isn't a walk in the park - they eat a huge amount and, particularly Alpacas, are vulnerable to hypothermia during a solar flare.

If you decide to do it a tip is that it is more food efficient to let them starve and be recovered to a sleeping spot than to keep a pile of food next to them. I lost one to this technique though when everyone had higher priority tasks.

Well, I bought a cow now which seems really efficient in matter of vegetable nutrition in - animal product out, since they have a lower hunger rate than a normal pawn and still produce 15 milk per day.
So this allows me to make fine meals in great quantities, and I'll start making some packaged survival meals for travels when the research for that gets completed. But right now I really need to focus on turrets cause those mechs are really starting to be a problem, so PSM will have to wait!

Hi.
I discovered you on youtube a few days ago when you launched episode 1 and I decided to try it along with you =)
It's been an... interesting experience. Lots of dead colonists, lots...
I think I'm on my 17th playthrough or something like that, just managed to buy some stone blocks from a trader and I'm currently working on securing the base perimiter so I can hide without things killing my power! I had never tried Sea Ice before so there was alot of learning to be had :P

I do have one question though! Does taming animals count as harvesting resources from another tile?
I'm starved for good clothes as the parka I'm currently wearing is at 30% and every other pair just doesn't give enough insulation. But the traders seem unwilling to part with som wool for whatever reason =(
So I'm thinking of buying an alpaca or megasloth if possible, since they had fairly low hunger rates. I was also considering taming a muffalo in another tile, but I feel like that's cheating abit with the predetermined conditions of the playthrough!

Is there an official ruling to be had maybe?
