Cage (enclosure) - Poaching and Hunting

Poaching and Hunting

Cages also serve a purpose as a hunting tool, often used to seize an animal. This is a common and illegal purpose of the cage, as poaching is illegal itself. These type of cages are used to trap an animal, or hold them for a certain period of time. U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt used a cage himself to capture a bear, as the cage serves a purpose for capturing large animals.
