Trapper is the skill associated with the trapping labor. Trappers are involved in trapping vermin through the use of animal traps.
To trap an animal, either query a kennel or Butcher's shop and add the a 'Capture live land animal' task, or b - m build an animal trap, which must then be baited with meat or fish. Many vermin animals are tamable and can be tamed at the kennel.
Trappers will pursue and catch tame vermin that's outside of a container.
The trapper skill is also used in creating animal traps. Wooden traps are made at the carpentry workshop, while metal ones are constructed at a metalsmith's forge, or a magma forge.
Trappers can be used to control the vermin population and/or acquire fancy creatures to put in cages and place in your fortress. In the first function, they are easily outperformed by cats, and the second is mainly attractive to boost dwarf mood if they encounter an animal they particularity like. Of course many vermin are hateable so it is questionable how effective this may be. As one of the Ranger professions, skill trappers often have other, more useful skills such as marksdwarf or ambusher.
