How do I stop my Dwarves from committing suicide by running wildly across the map to collect Spider webs whose owners really don't want to part with them?

Build cage. Catch spider. Build web harvesting area.

I had no Loom. Weaving was not enabled...

... the GCS was hunting Mountain Goats.

As suggested above (by Elvang), I think they were outside for reasons other than gathering the webs.  (Did you see them have the job "collect webs" in their personal menu?)

Without a loom, no one collects webs - no reason.  It is one of the triggers for that activity.

Lock them in your fort and hope your fort can live forever without trading or trees.
Edit: To clear any misunderstandings i mean to lock the dwarves in the fort not the webs or the gcs.
