I have the same issue, and it has rendered most of the overgrowth unusable for that reason. Two permanent tornadoes circle the raised island in the center, freeing most of the slimes in each cage, scattering food and plorts about, just asking for a Tarr outbreak.
I've removed all of the Dervish slimes from the ranch, but these two tornadoes won't go away. The most likely explanation is that there are a couple of Dervishes lodged under the ground or in the terrain somewhere (my bet would be between the main "block" of the raised center island and the second step; the tornadoes keep favoring that location).
Edit: I think this is confirmed. I stood on the second step and splashed some water into the joint between the step I was on and the island itself, and the tornadoes went away for a few minutes. The slimes are in there!
As far as the suggestion to try a new game profile: It didn't happen right away when I brought the Dervishes in. I had at least a couple hours of (real, not in game time) play time when everything worked as it should... when they were upset (hungry, mainly), the Dervish slimes would start these tornadoes, but feeding them calmed them down and the tornadoes went away. Something broke at some point, though; previously, they had not caused any problems with the other corrals in the overgrowth, as the tornadoes gravitated toward the corral with the Dervish slimes in it. Now they were freeing the slimes in all but one corral, well away from the corral where the Dervishes lived.
That was when I sucked the Dervishes back into the vac pack and discovered that the tornado no longer went away. Everything is fine until one of the slimes glitches into some place where it can't be seen, and then this happens. I wish there was some fail-safe way to destroy all slimes within a given area without regard to terrain... even Tarrs couldn't get it done. I tried creating a few dozen of them, but they just bounced around and eventually died, and the tornadoes persisted.
This needs to be fixed post haste, whatever that means.
