After several in-game weeks, finally managed to get it to breed.

Then a bunch of trolls came in a siege, broke the walls, killed half of them.

No biggie, coralled what I could and re-bred them.

After one of my returns from mining forays...

'The cold wind is blowing from the mountains'

A bunch of drakes came and commited genocide of all my da_n boars.

Do I, like, have to build a freaking castle for my bl__dy livestock?!

I suggest not living on your ranch. Attacks happen at dawn towards mid day. I have yet to have an evening nor nighttime raid. Should be able to keep them alive and unharmed if you sleep and craft else where
