ABSTRACT:
Conventional traps often catch animals by the leg rather than killing them outright. This trap utilizes two spring actuated jaws closing upon a base ring but with stops on the base ring maintaining the movable jaws slightly open when sprung so that an animal cannot be caught by the leg. The trip mechanism is such that it can be actuated by pressure upon any part of the pan thus releasing the jaws and killing the animal with a blow to the head or neck area. The spring mechanism is such that if large animals are accidentally caught by the foot, they are able to pull foot free.
