Forest is actually golgari charm. Assuming you've got 1/1 tokens and/or creatures out on the battlefield, swing with the cagebreakers, and before the ability triggers, cast the charm to kill off all the 1/1's, and as a result the cagebreaker triggers with that many wolf tokens out of nowhere, along with the triggers prior from creatures already in the grave. The only way this combo works is due to the fact that the tokens hit the graveyard for a split second, and the trigger resolves as they hit the grave for the turn. Use fungal sprouting or sporemound to get out as much as you need for the turn.

No dice. A token may exist in the graveyard briefly enough to count as dying, but it doesn't stay any longer than that. By the time the Cagebreaker gets to resolve, the tokens have already vanished, so only the real cards count.

Also, the Cagebreaker triggers when it attacks, not when a creature dies.
