What can I catch with a crate trap?

I understand that baby animals such as elk and deer can be caught in it, but i'm wondering what else? Does it catch baby wolves and/or baby goats? Are there any adult animals it can catch (specifically the smaller species of goat and deer)?

Update:
Had a friend go through the json files to help me out, so I'll at least update here so anyone else who is wondering knows as well.
- Goats: No adults, all babies (babies can be caught in reed as well)
- Deer & Gazelle: Water deer & Pudu deer adults, all babies (except baby Pudu, reed only)
- Elk: No adults, all babies
- Fox: All Adults, no babies (reed only)

Chickens, Rabbits, Piglets, baby Wolves, and baby Racoon can only be caught in reed traps respectively.
Bears, Adult Wolves, Boar, Racoons, Moose cannot be caught at all (yes, this includes moose babies).

Hope this helps!!

It doesn't sound like crate traps add much functionality over reed ones...

Tbh the only functionality is for the baby elk so you can tame them, but there's always traders so yeah.

That's a bummer. I assumed I'd be able to use a larger trap to catch an adult sheep at least.

I placed a wodden trap out and it was sprung but nothing inside.   On using a pick axe to pick the trap back up I lost it completely.    Seems a waste of hinges and planks if it is one off use.

Same thing happened to my reed traps so I think that's a bug. I saw somewhere else someone say they're reusable but I'm not entirely sure. It would be stupid if they weren't reusable tho 😕
