Woot, wild boars can haul now in alpha12c, which make them my favorite pets. Breed fast, grow up fast and can haul stuff. Damage of 9 isnt half bad either, lvl 20 handler has 50% chance to train and their leather is very good for fireproof coats, as good as synthread regarding the heat protection.

Nice!
But their carrying capacity is only 53. So while they're quite common, labradors and huskies are easier to train, and carry more. I don't remember what carrying capacity of a pig is, only that they're more sensitive to cold.

Only in RimWorld is the phrase "31 Heavily-Armed Siegers are currently bombing your base" preferable to "50 manhunting squirrels are attacking your colony"

So I though i'd get myself pigs since they make for good lifestock with the reproduction thinking they'd also not bond, and well they're nowhere as diligent as dogs it appears. It would be cool if animals like that had their hauling level cap reduced to reflect them being lazy and lard asses. Basically I belief that dogs are more likely to move about and not concern themselves with eating food which means you'd want the dogs/chicks rather than pigs hoping they'd haul stuff and make for food.
