In NL we call it a wildrooster, which roughly translates to "wild animal grate," but more literally could be interpreted as "venison toaster."
Also, its name then focuses on being for wild animals instead of cattle.
NINJA EDIT: Looks like veerooster is an accepted other name, which specifically translates to cattle grid. I guess which one you use depends on whether you're trying to control sheep or cows vs. boars or deer.
Fun story, when I started playing my Tabaxi Cleric of Sylvanus, we were walking through the woods towards our first dungeon, and on the way we got ambushed by wolves. The talk went:
ME: I'll position myself between the others and the wolves.
DM: then they'll attack you first.
ME: pfft, that's fine, I've got an AC of 18.
DM: does a 21 hit?
ME: 😨 (meekly) yes...?
DM: 23 hits as well...
ME: 😰
DM: and 19 as well, right... You take 10 damage.
ME: fuck, I'm down!
Grog and his dynamics with Pike, and/or the mere existence of Jester Lavorre, makes that categorically false. Way more shenanigans & tomfoolery than the earlier comment was asking for.
If you want the most extensive, expansive, awesome emergent story base building game out there, there's of course Dwarf Fortress. You can download it right off the devs, where it's free but takes a PhD to begin to make sense of the UI. Or you can buy it on Steam, where it will cost you a little bit, but thanks to massive UI improvements, it's actually playable by regular people.
