ABSTRACT:
A trap is of the power snare type for trapping fur-bearing animals, including large predators. The trap has a base arm and a snare arm as integral extensions of a torsion coil spring. The base arm is supported on the ground using a support assembly. A trigger connected to the support assembly engages the snare arm to hold it in a set position against the bias of the spring. The snare arm has an outer section that slopes upwardly across an animal trail so that the main part of this trap can be set to the side of the trail and a snare carried by the snare arm positioned across the trail. The free end of the snare is connected to the trigger so that the trap will be triggered by an animal engaging its head in the snare. Traps of this construction may also be used as tip-ups for fishing.
