My fortress gets an alligator 24/7, when I remove one, another one comes. How can I cage one specifically?

edit: I was replying to the cat question.

I double posted, so I though it'd be better to use a topic rather then waste it.

Cage traps and a bait on a rope behind it

[SimRobert2001]

actually, he's right. place an animal trap, bait it with meat. set it somewhere nearby the alligator, and eventaully, he SHOULD go for it.

I thought animal traps were for vermin only? Is it really possible to get [LARGE_ROAMING] animals with them?

I normally just set cage traps in the likely spots and let it go to luck, but if a baited trap would catch a large animal as easily as it does vermin ...

Its a long shot, but i've heard of people getting Giant Cave Spiders, but those may be considered vermin.

I don't think Pilsu meant that you bait the trap. I think he was saying that you put an animal on a chain in a small area, and a cage trap in the entrance to that area. This way, the alligator comes to munch on the animal and gets caught instead.
