Obtained by trapping elite wolves, (Direfang Alphas) found in Nagrand using Deadly Iron Trap. These have a chance to give Savage Blood along with more Sumptuous Fur when turned at your barn for a work order.. Also note that you need a level 3 barn in your garrison to obtain Deadly Iron Trap.

Placing a Barn level 3 work order with this cage will give you 15 Sumptuous Fur or 22 Sumptuous Fur with a level 100 follower assigned to the building.
You also have a chance for 1 Savage Blood.
Goldmane the Skinner Is probably the easiest follower to get for your Barn if you are in need of one.

You can get two cages from one beast by putting your Deadly Iron Trap right on top of your previous one, then dmg it to 50%

This also works while in groups, if every1 stands on top of each other and places their traps you all get a caged beast.

Comment by Draewind

To trap an animal, you must bring their health down to 50% or less. If you are high dps, have a pet, bodyguard, or trinket proc ... they will usually die before getting trapped. When you place the Iron Trap , it will sit for a second as it opens. It will not trap an animal during this period. Once it is opened, the damaged animal must walk over it.

I use the macro below to keep from killing them before they are trapped. Bring them to 50% then use the Iron Trap macro (below).

You trap animals (listed on the trap) to get one of the Caged Beast listed below. You then turn them in to the ~~<Barn Supervisor>~~<Work Orders> either Homer Stonefield or Farmer Lok'lub. Depending on the type of Caged Beast you bring him, he will offer to start a workorder for:

Clefthoof or Elekk = Leathery Caged Beast workorder produces 8 x Raw Beast Hide

Talbuk or Wolf = Furry Caged Beast workorder produces 8 x Sumptuous Fur

Riverbeat or Boar = Meaty Caged Beast workorder produces 1 x Savage Feast

(Leathery Caged Beast Furry Caged Beast Meaty Caged Beast - MAY BE IN YOUR BANK to start the work order with them. They fit in the Reagents tab.)

With a LEVEL 100 follower working in your Barn (with the Skinning trait), instead of 8 you will produce 12, or instead of 1 occasionally you will get 2. Followers of lower level do not produce as much additional (stated in the tool tip Skinning).

Those of you that chose a Brewery for your Spires of Arak garrison, will have acquired Hulda Shadowblade at the end of your questline for the zone. Those that did not acquire Hulda Shadowblade, will probably need to find Goldmane the Skinner. When you free him you get Feline Friends Forever which rewards Follower: Goldmane the Skinner.
(Goldmane the Skinner)

Iron Trap allows the capture of Leathery Caged Beast and Furry Caged Beast.
Improved Iron Trap allows the capture of Leathery Caged Beast,Furry Caged Beast, and Meaty Caged Beast.
Deadly Iron Trap allows the capture of Leathery Caged Beast,Furry Caged Beast, Meaty Caged Beast,
adding the MIGHTY:
Caged Mighty Clefthoof, Caged Mighty Wolf, and Caged Mighty Riverbeast.

Leathery Caged Beast,Furry Caged Beast, and Meaty Caged Beast will always give the yield shown above, regardless the level of the animal you trap. A level 90 Clefthoof will give the same production from a work order as a level 100 Clefthoof.

Caged Mighty Clefthoof, Caged Mighty Wolf, and Caged Mighty Riverbeast will give 15/22 instead of 8/12 (without follower/with follower) and have the possibility of Savage Blood.

Deadly Iron Trap on Ironhide Bull gives Caged Mighty Clefthoof
Deadly Iron Trap on Direfang Alpha gives Caged Mighty Wolf
Deadly Iron Trap on Wetland Trampler gives Caged Mighty Riverbeast

TRAP MACRO
---------------------------

Instead of Iron Trap mine is now Improved Iron Trap or Deadly Iron Trap. (Everywhere in the macro where it says, "Iron Trap", I have added "Improved" so that now it says, "Improved Iron Trap" -- or "Deadly" and "Deadly Iron Trap".)

Type /macro into the chat window and your Macro Frame will open. There are two tabs at the top, General Macros and <CharacterName> Specific Macros. Click on the Character Specific tab and then find and click the New Button (bottom about center). A side window will open with a lot of icons, and the Red Question Mark icon selected. Leave the Red Question Mark icon as the icon selection and type in any name even a blank space will do in the top text area of the side window. So that I know it is a macro, I always give it some name even an X at times. I named this one TRAP.

Now click the Okay button and that side frame will close. Click on the large black text area to position your cursor into the text field, it should automatically be in the top left corner. Now copy and past the commands below into the window ... just as they are typed:

#showtooltip Iron Trap
/stopattack
/petpassive
/petfollow
/use Iron Trap

The first command makes the Red Question Mark icon turn into the Iron Trap icon.
Next is the command that stops your Auto Attack.
Next will put your pet on passive followed by the command to put your pet on follow.

All attacking has been stopped and the last act is to drop the Iron Trap.

Press the save button and the macro with the name you gave it and the Iron Trap icon will be there in your macro frame. Now you just drag it to an action bar (as you would any spell) and go test it out. And now you have made your first macro and have a bit of an understanding, you can go to:

WoWWiki Macro Slash Commands

And learn about macros a little more ;-)

Can anyone confirm that the double trapping method still work? I just unlocked my lvl 3 barn and have been unable to get more than one caged animal at a time. I still get both guys that show up afterwards, and they both say their normal thing about the catch, but I only receive one item in my bags. Did they fix this with the maintenance yesterday?

Comment by Azoney

I can confirm that the double trapping method got hotfixed January 9 2015.
But if you are in a group, a single trap will award a caged beast for each nearby party member with a level 3 barn.

As of 6.1 these stack to 1000. Also note that forming a group is BY FAR the best way to farm these because you get credit for every nearby caged beast from your group. After about an hour and a half of chain pulls with several groups I managed to farm a stack of 350.

As of Battle for Azeroth (Patch 8.2) I can confirm that Soft Foam Sword works to wound all but the largest beasts in Nagrand for trapping. It has a cast time, so sometimes aggroing a beast with a non-damaging effect (an interrupt or other cc) can be useful to position the beast over the trap.

Soft Foam Sword can be purchased from various Toy vendors in Orgrimmar, Stormwind, or Dalaran such as Jepetto Joybuzz.
