ABSTRACT:
A safety snap for restraining livestock that is releasable upon the application of a selected force by the animal to minimize the possibility and severity of injury to the animal and handler. A lead rope is attached to the safety snap, which is clasped to the halter. Application of a selected amount of force by the animal breaks a shear pin, unlatching the safety snap to release the lead rope. The safety snap remains attached to the halter. A reservoir in the safety snap contains replacement shear pins.
