A caravan hitching spot designates a place for caravans to gather around when forming. As of Rimworld 1.3 Pack animals will be led and roped to the Caravan hitching spot, be aware this can quickly accumulate animal filth. Other Animals that have been designated to be brought along with the caravan will be tied to the caravan hitching spot to await the finishing of the packing. The caravan hitching spot should be placed in the main stockpile to minimize travel time and maximize efficiency.

If your colony have no pen for an animal , your colonist will automatically tie your animal to the hitching spot. But be careful , they may starve if they cannot reach any food.
