Note: if your offended by this idea, what the hell are you doing playing this game?!

[BioDisaster]

Using puppies and kittens as shark and alligator bait?Really?That is just the MOST AMAZING IDEA EVER.

[Tevish Szat]

eeh, we've been using the little vermin as bait for goblins for long enough.

[Koremu]

Using cats as Goblin bait is better. You build a cattery area to one side of the entryway, so that it's out of sight until the goblins get level with it, and a network of traps & tunnels behind it.

Goblins arrive, walk into the entryway, chase cat, get gibbed/caged.

[Nyxalinth]

In game, fine, whatever, it's pixels.

IRL...well, I won't derail the thread.    But since this is DF, I'd say it's better taken a step further and use the hunters themselves as bait.

And prey tell how you would do that?

[Coalwalker]

They're practically bait already, hanging around outside the walls all the time. Now, making them run towards the traps, there's the trouble...

Also...pun intended?

I will derail the thread by saying, IRL I am completely against this.  I love my pets and can't imagine people doing this to them.

In the game: I wonder if I can work this into my ocean embark to catch some sea life finally...

Yes, sort of:  someone came up with a great idea for this.  A windowed cubby hole at the mouth of a tunnel with a war animal in it.  Sea creatures swim past the window, spot the war animal through the window, and swim into the tunnel to escape.

I am offended by the idea. The reason why I play this game is because it's not real, it's nothing more than programming.

[pisskop]

But, [gasp] what if I get the urge to do this IRL?  At the risk of derailing, I put forth that something has to be bait.

Quit trying to dictate other people's personal lives and belittle your own biologically ingrained instinctual ability to form bonds.

[Rutilant]

how'd this double post thingy happen?  There was only one post here for like, eight hours and then it duplicated or something.   Even I'm not a big enough tool to quote myself in a double post.  :|

[pisskop]

Yikes, dude, quit yelling.  Also don't provide me with fuel for my position.

It wasn't yelling, it was irony!  You used very tiny text, I used very large text, etc.

Seriously though.  If I need to remind you that you're not really a dwarf irl...
