They can graze on grass or dispose of all your human [[corpse]]s. Set an [[allowed area]] to ''exclude'' your tamed rats from your colony, so that they won't eat your food. In the winter, wild rats will also eat your own food if you're not careful. |
As tamed animals, rats are very good cannon fodder due to their rapid breed time. While they cannot be trained to attack, you can set an allowed area mid-battle to command your rat army wherever needed. Compared to [[hare]]s, rats have a lower wildness, meaning they less effort to handle, but hares are faster and reproduce more often. Rats can also eat corpses and other forms of meat. | As tamed animals, rats are very good cannon fodder due to their rapid breed time.
