Doing so causes the animal to take 1d6+1 points of Non-Lethal Damage and gain the [[Fatigued]] condition. If the animal is already [[Fatigued]], it takes 4d6+5 points of Non-Lethal Damage and becomes [[Exhausted]], instead. If the animal is already [[Exhausted]], it takes 10d6+20 points of Non-Lethal Damage and becomes [[Incapacitated]], once it completes the requested exertion. An animal brought to [[Incapacitated]] by the ''push an animal'' command will die unless all damage it has taken, including Non-Lethal Damage, is cured within 1 minute of gaining that status condition. | ||
