Moral of the story: Never tame a Muffalo

[WR104]

Since A17 reduced the chances of animals (minus the Thrumbo?) going manhunter when failing a tame attempt, I decide to tame a few Muffalo for use to transport items (and other self-tamed animals) from a mining base to the main colony.

A small herd of 4 Muffalo (one of which was already self-tamed, and ready to be sent to the main colony) had entered the area not long after I set up shop near a mountain, which used to be an item stash guarded by an outpost, and since the base is already self-sufficient, even able to support an entire Muffalo herd, I sent one of the colonists from the main area to tame them.

Muffalo's manhunter chance was reduced from 0.5% to 0.3%, making me assume it would be easier to tame those instead of sending all my alpacas over a 2-3 day long journey over to the mining base, with risks of losing them all to an ambush (since they were also trained to become apparently awful battle animals, but were still useful when in need of them.)

In just one taming attempt, the whole herd of Muffalo ganged up on my only good handler and killed him before I manage to bring the rest of the colonists in the area to neutralize the threat.

From now on, I'll be waiting for a Muffalo or two to self-tame.
