Summary0002450: Small war dogs can shake giants and elephants around
Description30-kilo dogs bite a 6000-kilo ogre and shake it around by the upper body, lower body and other parts. Maybe the "shakes around" shouldn't happen when the victim is three times or more larger than the aggressor.

I don't think "shaking around" means the dog physically moves the elephant. It means he bites, gets hold and begins shaking his head, trying to tear off a chunk of elephant meat.

Yeah, while the wording is arguably strange (I share Jiri's interpretation), this is intended behavior and not a bug. Suggestions still go in the Suggestions forum: http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?board=5.0
