0005476: You can't butcher vermin but you can buy goods that require it.
You can buy vermin meat and leather despite not being able to produce them yourself. You also get creatures wearing clothes made from vermin leather. They clutter up the stockpile and embark lists.

While I could see someone killing many a rat to make a rat leather cloak I'm not sure if it would really be feasible to tan rat skins or if you should get people trading them.

Leather is easily removed from any creature using the following:
[REMOVE_MATERIAL:LEATHER]

Stopping their meat from being edible is more complicated.
No tags attached.
