Taming and mining question

[linkfanpc]

I just beat the crap out of a mouflon i'm taming. After the fight, a red 15, (My final parry move that won the fight.) and a yellow 45 popped up. I tethered him to the post, and it didn't seem to give any taming points. (The last two times i got taming points from beating him, then tethering him to a hitching post.) So was that yellow 45 that popped up directly after the fight the taming points i got, or the HHP damage i dealt with the last parry? I can't figure it out.

And for the mining question, is are caves level 1 in the mines or just it's own level, like a level 0, or cave level?

The first underground level is reachable through cave entrances and mineholes placed above ground.

If you were taming the animal, 45 yellow number popped out and the fight auto-stopped during that moment it means you got "taming points".

So that 45 was the taming points? I thought you only ever got 15?

I think it shows the total number of taming points the animal has.

Ooooh. That makes much more sense. Thanks.
