  Ferae Naturae: West's Encyclopedia of American Law
Animals that are wild by nature are called ferae naturae, and possession is a means of acquiring title to such animals.
If, however, a wild animal is either killed or caught in a trap so that the capture is certain, the individual who traps or mortally wounds it acquires a vested right to possession and title that is not defeatable by another's intervention.
Animals ferae naturae differ from those that are tame or domesticated, or domitae, in which an individual can have an absolute property right.
