I think that safety / monster hunting was the predominant motivation for hunting the Petty-Dwarves; that is not to say we know what Elves did with them after killing. I picture their appearance as a sort of raccoon infestation that has to be cleared away if you don't want your settlement perpetually harassed, even if raccoons can be cute and everything. But what to do with the bodies? Is it possible the Elves haven't seen that many dead bodies? Would the dwarves try to rescue the bodies of their fallen comrades to prevent the Elves getting them?
