Rats breed quickly and are a very cheap animal, both in [[Market Value]] and in food costs. They can graze on grass or dispose of all your human [[corpse]]s. Set an [[allowed area]] to ''exclude'' your colony, so that rats won't eat your own food. In the winter, wild rats will eat your own food if you're not carful.

Analysis

Rats breed quickly and are a very cheap animal, both in Market Value and in food costs. They can graze on grass or dispose of all your human corpses. Set an allowed area to exclude your colony, so that rats won't eat your own food. In the winter, wild rats will eat your own food if you're not careful.

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 hares, 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.
