It's called a "Booby trap" and it's not exclusive to jungles. Booby traps can be used in any type of terrain. The purpose is to lure your enemy into your trap, which could be in shape of any ammunition, be it grenades, land mines or IEDs.

What i meant was Booby Toys (to be more Precise) Used By Russians To Target Afghan Children NOT Booby Traps Used By Vietnamese Against Americans.
