Summary0002532: Goblin teeth don't count as "ivory/tooth"
DescriptionGoblins often get their teeth knocked out in combat or by weapon traps. I tried to use some of them in a craftdwarfs workshop, but the "make ivory/tooth crafts" job get cancelled due to "needs unrotten ivory/tooth body part"
Steps To Reproduceknock a tooth out of a goblin, assign a "make ivory/tooth crafts" job in a craftsdwarf's workshop
Additional InformationMaybe goblin teeth are just too small and worthless to make crafts out of them, but if that's what's it supposed to be like, maybe worth- and useless teeth shouldn't be tracked as separate items that get hauled to refuse stockpiles after leaving the body. It's just confusing to have ten teeth lying around and being told that you don't have any tooth items.

It's because dwarves refuse to butcher goblins or use their bodyparts, as defined in dwarven ethics raws. So it's expected behaviour.

Jiri is correct. Generating a new world with modded ethics should theoretically allow you to use goblin teeth, but if that doesn't work, feel free to reopen this issue or PM me on the forums.
