Why did wood elves capture the dwarves and not Bilbo?
Bilbo kept from being captured by the Wood Elves in Mirkwood by using The Ring to turn himself invisible. He slipped in after the company of Elves that had captured the other members of The Company (namely, the twelve dwarves) as the Elves were escorting the dwarves into the Elven fortress.
How does Bilbo get captured by the Wood Elves?
He doesn't. Instead, he puts on his Ring and sneaks unseen with the captive dwarves in with them.
Where do Bilbo and the others get captured by the elves?
They took them to the halls of the Elven King in his hall, a large cave at the edge of Mirkwood. The wood elves of Mirkwood, in the Hobbit, took the thirteen dwarves to their king's halls, where they were locked in by cellars and a magic gate.
How does Bilbo help the dwarves escape from wood elves?
They escape in barrels sent downriver to be filled.

I think it was Bilbo Baggins
Who were the people that held captive the dwarves from The Hobbit?
