ABSTRACT:
A small animal trap includes a base, a jaw pivotally mounted to the base and biased to close to one end of the base, a latch bar releasably holding the jaw in an open position, and a touch-sensitive trigger mechanism releasably connected to the latch bar. The trap has a bait holder with the flat base having a top surface and a multitude of resiliently flexible fingers extending upwardly therefrom to hold the bait in the interstices therebetween from where the bait can be removed by an animal only in a manner which would significantly disturb the trigger mechanism, thereby springing the trap.
