ABSTRACT:
A trap having an eye is provided on the free end of the upper arm. A cable is secured to the free end of the lower arm and extends through the eye, so as to be slidably connected with the end of the upper arm. A slip noose is formed at the free end of the cable, which noose can be positioned to overlie the trigger. When the catch member is released, the upper arm throws the noose upwardly and simultaneously tightens the loop onto the paw of the animal. Because the cable remains attached to the two free ends of the now angularly disposed arms, and is free to slide through the eye, the jerking pulls of the snared animal on the end of the cable will merely cause the arms to be pulled part way together, against the resistance of the coil spring. Thus the animal is not jerking on a cable attached to a rigid anchor, and thus will not injure itself.
