ABSTRACT:
Animal traps are usually difficult to sterilize in order to remove human odor therefrom and difficult to hide when setting and often contain moving parts, tubes, pins and the like. The present device consists of a pair of spring arms made of heavy wire with a hairpin spring at the junction thereof. Eye loops are formed one on each distal end of the arms and one of these has a slotted semi-circular plate welded otherwise secured into the base of the eye. A freely running snare loop is provided on one end of a standing part, in which part extends through the slot in the disk or plate and through a cotter pin assembly spanning the other eye and terminates with a ferrule outboard of the other eye. A trigger block is secured to the standing part inboard of the slotted disk when the trap is set with the two arms close together and being urged apart by the spring. The snare loop is adjustable to catch the shoulders of the animal, and the movement thereof disengages the trigger block from the slotted disk and allows the arms to spring apart tightening the snare loop and striking the animal a heavy blow with the eye of the one arm.
