Tag:man_made=animal_trap

The tag man_made=animal_trap can be used to map a place where animals are caught. Animal Trapping, or simply trapping, is the use of a device to remotely catch an animal. Animals may be trapped for a variety of purposes, including food, the fur trade, hunting, pest control, and wildlife management. Only permanent or semi-permanent traps should be mapped. Don't map temporary features.

Tagging

Either place a single node or draw the area of the extents of the trap and apply the tag man_made=animal_trap to it. Additionally the following sub-tags can be used to refine the feeding place:

• animal_trap:type=leg_hold/body_grip/deadfall/snare/pit/cage/glue/...
• animal_trap:for=<animal>, where <animal> means the name of the animal (english singular form). If more than one species is kept, provide a semi-colon-separated list, e.g. animal_trap:for=wild_boar;rabbit.
• animal_trap:doors=<number of doors of structure, if any>
• height=*
• operator=*
• colour=*
• material=*
• camouflaged=* whether it is Camouflaged within its surrounding
• covered=* whether protection against sun and rain is offered for the caught animal
• watering_place=* whether water is supplied for the caught animal
• animal_feed=* whether feed is supplied for the caught animal
