These animals are more for carrying things than they are for being a mount, although they can be ridden. Dwarves and very short Humans have been known to use these animals as riding beasts. Despite being poorly suited as a mount, these creatures make very versatile pack animals, as they can climb steep hills and handle hostile environments. Moreover, they do not require special feed; they only need grass, hay, or similar common greens.
