It's a bit less disturbing than Dwarf Fortress' sporulating animals.
They literally reproduced as if the males spread spores that fertilized any females they could get to XS
But then Dward Fortress' are most famous for turning half of players into monsters who farm cats to feed them to their dwarfs, while trying desperately to fight of an army of goblins and keep the local blacksmith from murdering everyone in grief because his pet goat died.
Oh, no. Just no, no, no. (rofpml)
Mind you, I have complete sympathy for the local blacksmith. Losing his pet goat ... tragedy.
Read BronzeMurder, and see how nice and cosy we have it in OUR world.
Seriously... The DwarfFortress universe would NOT be a nice place to live in XS
I have enough trouble with this world, thank you very much.
