Check the string dump on the wiki.

That's what I'm looking for. Not sure what it's listed under.

Edit: Found it, now that I knew to look for "string dump". I'm betting "is gigantic with incredible muscles" is the best I'm hoping for.

Wouldn't this be easier to do if you modded an animal with only one body part?

Why does a sufficiently large cow have 14 hearts and 29 brains? Is it supposed to be that, once it's big enough, it's just how many meal-sized pieces you can make?

Yes. Big dragon, big heart, much food.

Think of it as a "serving of brain".  Like a pie, you can cut it up into 29 brain slices.  With pepperoni toppings.

 :o :o :o :o

rabbit has no meat! yet out there in RL,  is eatable, cookable, and stewable, probably   etecetera.

obviously the formula listed here should be is correct from results of  trial and error work (thank you thank you... proving aint right).  Would you all call this DF formula bugged or not conforming to RL?

A proper fix for the "rabbit problem" would be to just give every creature +1 meat.

Yes, it's decidedly annoying for my hunters to take several weeks chasing down a bunch of rabbits and do nothing but waste bolts.

Or it could drop fractional pieces of meat, similar to how fat is made in "globs".

Is it possible to give them a "meat item" to drop on death? Cause that would solve the problem. One meat isn't much, but it would make hunting/breeding rabbits worth it. Breeding especially.
