I have a pasture that I want to assign more animals to. I assume there must be a way to do this without deleting the pasture and creating a new one, but I really can't figure out how to do it.

So from what I gather is that you want to create a specific map or decrease the temperature on an already created map. I don't know the latter but I can help with the former:
- Open up DF
- On the main screen select Design New World With Parameters
- Select one of the presets and press the e key
- Scroll down till you see the following (should be the second page):
- Change the Maximum Temperature and Minimum Volcanism values
- good values for Temperature are ~45
- good values for Volcanism are >50
- Finally, to ensure a good Taiga you'll want to play with the Rainfall parameter.
To train exotic animals you need a dungeon master. Once you have a Dungeon Master you can tame exotic animals. Once the animal is tame you can then train it as a beast of war.
In version .31 and upwards the dungeon master has been removed. He is no longer needed to train large animals in .34, in .31 he was. But there was a bug that prevented him from showing up.

Open the Zones menu with i, move the cursor over the pasture you want to edit, then press N. This screen will let you manage animals and assign them to that pasture.
