I also uploaded the pack with the game contains corresponding save file so you can check it out (last save, 251 year) -- https://www.dropbox.com/s/ijuk6rcjidwg11w/df_40_23_win_save.zip?dl=0 [^]

You can find the strange cage traps near the entrance to the fortress for example.
Steps To ReproduceYou need to build cage traps and eventually some of them will look like unloaded ones even after loading with cage.

Isn't this just because of leaves on the ground and stuff?

All right, I think this is expected (a similar problem can occur with bloody weapon traps). Other than cleaning traps and/or checking the surrounding area with [k], there's not much to be done. Feel free to make any suggestions on the forum: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?board=5.0 [^]
