Boomalope
Engineered for chemicals production, the boomalope grows a large sac of volatile chemicals on its back. Though it is weak and fragile for its size, other animals have learned to avoid it because of the huge explosion it produces when it dies. It can be milked to produce chemfuel - very carefully.

Boomalopes are herbivores with a high hunger rate. They produce 11 chemfuel per day, and explode on death.
Acquisition
Boomalopes can be found in temperate forests, temperate swamps, tropical rainforests, tropical swamps, arid shrublands, and deserts. They can either be tamed by a Handler or self-tame in a random event.
Boomalopes can be bought and sold in other faction bases and from bulk goods traders. Boomalopes purchased from traders will be already tamed.
Summary
They produce 11 chemfuel per day when fed, but production decreases as saturation drops. Production drops to half when the animal is hungry, one third when urgently hungry and completely stops when starving.
On death, boomalopes explode, doing 10 Flame damage in a radius that depends on the age stage of the animal. Baby boomalopes explode in a 1.9 tile radius, juveniles in a 2.9 tile radius, and adults in a 4.9 tile radius. This explosion does not itself set fires nor provide chemfuel puddles to burn but the Flame damage might ignite surrounding objects and pawns. Note: This explosion will still occur if the boomalope is slaughtered or dies of natural causes.
Analysis
An adult boomalope consumes 17.2 hay per day. In 100% fertility soil, this would require 12.4 tiles of haygrass to grow. In order to produce the same 11 chemfuel per day in a biofuel refinery, 21 tiles of corn plant would be needed.
This advantage is further increased if the boomalope is allowed to graze instead of requring pawn-grown crops. This can partially or totally negate the ongoing resource costs of boomalopes, which the refinery cannot replicate.
Lastly, milking at its base value requires 400 ticks (6.67 secs) of work for 11 units of chemfuel, or 36.4 ticks (0.61 secs) of work per chemfuel, while the refinery requires 2,500 ticks (41.67 secs) for 35 units, or 71.4 ticks (1.19 secs) of work per chemfuel. Milking time is dependent on the animal gather speed of the pawn, while refining time is dependent on their general labor speed. Notably, both stats have the same factors except that of the Animals skill of animal gather speed - thus, milking is more work efficient than refining for any pawn with a Animals skill of 4 or above and has a much greater potential for further reduction at higher skill levels.

*As of version 1.1.2610, all animals can be tamed. The percentage of likelihood of success depends on factors such as the Animals Wildness Percentage, Pawn Handling Skill, and others. More information can be found on the animals page.
