ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a padded jaw animal trap with a shock absorber means built into the padding on each jaw in order to reduce the peak loads encountered when the jaw closes on an animal's leg. A cavity is provided between the padding face and the jaw of the animal trap such that the cavity separates the animal's leg from the steel jaw. The cavity may be filled with a gas, liquid or foamed elastomer in order to perform its function of reducing the initial shock loads when the trap closes about an animal. Preferred embodiments include an apparatus to retain the padding on the jaw of an animal trap along with a U-shaped jaw construction which facilitates mounting of padding material on an animal trap jaw.
