Identify Mammal is an amateur-status sage ability in the study of Mammals which permits identification of a given order of mammals, including their tracks, spoor and other signs applying to specific mammal behaviour.
In addition to their identification, the character will also be aware — where monstrous forms of mammals occur — the principal threat the animal imposes. Specifically, knowledge of threat includes the number of attacks the animal possesses per round, what parts of the body are used in attack, the armour class of the animal and its approximate weight and hit dice.
This knowledge includes if a mammal is known to charge or similar mundane behaviour, but does not extend to any other magical attacks or defences these animals have.
