The Livestock Trailer is a towed animal trailer that carries farm animals and their supplies from one place to another. It is the key vehicle for starting or moving a farm with live animals.
The Livestock Trailer is a Standard vehicle in the game's terms, so its tires, brakes and suspension come from the common family car class. It must be towed behind a working vehicle. It hitches to the rear of almost any car or truck.
Inside, it has room for animals and small containers for animal food and eggs. That makes it a mobile pen as well as a transport.
The Livestock Trailer suits a survivor who keeps animals or plans to. It turns a single trip to a farm into a whole new herd at the base.
Towing the Livestock Trailer
The Livestock Trailer follows the vehicle that pulls it. It attaches directly to the rear of the towing vehicle.
Towing strength depends on engine power, not on truck size. Sports cars and other vehicles with strong engines pull it best. Heavy-duty trucks are not automatically the better choice.
The added weight slows the towing vehicle. Acceleration drops and stopping takes longer, so early braking and wide turns are wise.
The trailer can take damage in a crash. A damaged trailer can drop cargo, and a dull thump marks each lost item. Repairs work the same way as repairs to a vehicle trunk.
Some trailers spawn hitched to a wreck. If that wreck is too damaged, the trailer will not come free until the wreck is dismantled. Welding supplies make that job possible.
Livestock Trailer Storage
The main space holds animals. A food container and an egg container sit alongside. Both are small next to a car trunk, so they suit feed and eggs rather than general loot.
Carrying feed in the trailer keeps animals supplied on a long trip. Eggs laid during the journey can be collected from the egg container.
Livestock Trailer Parts
The Livestock Trailer has tires, brakes, suspension, a trunk lid and its storage containers. Its tires, brakes and suspension take Standard parts, the same class used by family cars. Wrecked sedans everywhere carry spares.
Tires wear out first under the weight of animals. Old, regular and performance grades exist for tires and brakes. The suspension comes in regular and performance grades.
Every part slot of the Livestock Trailer, the parts it takes for a Standard vehicle and the Mechanics level needed to fit them.

| Suspension | Mechanics: 3 | |
| Tires | Mechanics: 1 | |
| Trailer Animal Eggs | Trunk - Big | Mechanics: 0 |
| Trailer Animal Food | Trunk - Big | Mechanics: 0 |

Livestock Trailer Locations
Farms are the only place the Livestock Trailer spawns. Zombies in farmer clothes often stand nearby, so a careful approach is wise.
The kinds of places where the Livestock Trailer spawns, ranked by how many of the cars parked there it makes up.
