  1. Traps and Snares By NadjetCornejal

  2. Constructing Trap • Simple traps are made out of wires or string. • Triggers are made out of wood such as strong and springy wood. • Do not use wood found on the ground or dead. • Hide the end of the wood with mud\

  3. Snares • They are free running noose. • For smaller animals and rabbits, make a loop fist width in length. • Set is about four fingers above the ground and one hands’ width from the obstruction on the ground. • Secure it by putting twigs to support the loop if needed.

  4. Spring Snares • When the game is running towards the snare, disengage the trigger bar. • The prey will then be flunged off the ground. • Cut a notch in the trigger bar • Then attach the snare to the trigger bar and then to the sapling

  5. Baited snare • Do the same as you did with the spring snare but do as the picture below • The bait support must be lightly driven to the ground, as it must fly away from the snare.

  6. Leg snare • Push a fork or sticks tied together into the ground. • A line from the sapling will be tied to the wooden toggle which will then be passed under the fork. • When the prey takes the bait, you must then attach it to a separate stick. • It will fall releasing the toggle that flies up, it will take the snare and the prey with it.
