European rock drawings and cave paintings reveal that red deer (''Cervus elaphus'') and elk/moose (''Alces alces'') were hunted since the Stone Age using trapping pits. Remains of trapping pits used for hunting elk, reindeer, wolves, and bears can still be found in Northern Scandinavia. These pits, which can measure up to in size and be up to several metres deep, were camouflaged with branches and leaves.

Some traps had a small rope enabling rodents and amphibians to escape. Pits for hunting elk, Alces alces Pits for hunting Eurasian elk (moo ...
