Interesting!  The tongue body part in a wolf-sized creature is normally too small to yield any meat.  During the normal butchering process it doesn't contribute anything to the meat and other products totals.  A tongue by itself can't be butchered because of this.  Apparently, EXTRA_BUTCHER_OBJECT still yields an object even if the body part is too small to yield anything, but the presence of EXTRA_BUTCHER_OBJECT is not enough to make a lone small body part butcherable.

Can you use this to make a masterwork piece of equipment?

EDIT:  I'm seeing if you can, but I can't figure out the format to make an item out of one of the creature's materials.  I can get the item to drop, but no material name.  Anyone know how to do that?

Format is, {FILL IN THE BLANK(EXAMPLE)}:

[EXTRA_BUTCHER_OBJECT:BY_CATEGORY:{BODYPART(CHITIN)}]
      [EBO_ITEM:{ITEM FAMILY (SHIELD):{SPECIFIC ITEM(SHIELD)}:{WHERE THE MATERIAL IS FOUND(LOCAL_CREATURE_MAT)}:{WHAT THE MATERIAL IS(CHITIN)}]

Note the all capital letters.

Very interesting indeed.

From the looks of it this could also work towards making fully functional parasitoid creatures like the Xenomorphs from the Alien movies. Especially in this version of DF.

Imagine, an infected Migrant shows up. Nobody knows, he gets his own room. You get busy, forget about him. And then you get a message that Urist McPeasant has gone missing, you find him, and he's been torn open from the inside. And you know, your fortress is in trouble. Mwahaha.

For that I would think interactions would be better.

Interaction: Larva: transmit syndrome to dwarf. Kill larva.
Syndrome: Produce larva. Kill dwarf.

This so needs to be modded in. Much fun will be had.
