====Probability of Organ====
(As of end of 2020, according to [https://forum.projectgorgon.com/showthread.php?2747-Butchering-result-of-animal-fats&p=19653&viewfull=1#post19653 Citan's forum post]):
Provided you don't botch the butchering attempt altogether, you get a 3% chance of an organ for every 9 levels (rounded down) of the relevant [[Anatomy]] skill, plus any item bonus. If you receive an organ, it is selected at random from the possible organ drops for that mob.
Example: If you have a level 45-53 anatomy skill and [[Amutasa's Organ Knife|Amutasa's +7% organ knife]], you would have a 5*3+7 = 22% chance for an organ. Say you are butchering a [[barghest]]. Barghests have five different organs (stomach, brain, heart, spleen, tier-4 animal fat) so if you get an organ from one, you have a 1-in-5, or 20%, chance of getting a fat. That amounts to a 22%/5 = 4.4% chance to get fat from a Barghest.
