I am sharing some of the information he presented here, along with pictures (at the end) downloaded (free downloads only) of different trap types, and links to websites to help pet owners keep their pets safe from traps. DEATH BY SUFFOCATION WILL ENSUE WITHIN A FEW MINUTES!!!! A power snare has a stop, but no way to quickly and easily release in an emergency other than cutting the cable. Most snares work in such a way that the snare tightens as the animal struggles to a certain point shown by the "stop" between the middle and ring finger on this photo. This will save your pet's life, and you can have the (fairly minimal compared to death!) cut treated or stitched at the vet later, if needed, but your pet will be ALIVE.

A power snare does not have this type of mechanism or if it does, things are often so tight so quickly you can't release it, and your only option is to cut the cable with CABLE CUTTERS, where it is wrapped around your pet's neck or body, and you will likely need to also cut into the skin of your pet to release them. Some of these snares rely on a "pinch mechanism" rather than the lever mechanism shown here to back them off. The mechanism at the throat of the snare allows you to back it off to release an animal who is in respiratory distress. The wire continues to tighten as the animal fights and moves. Please forgive me, I fully intend to repeat myself throughout this post to emphasize the important points.Ī normal snare trap. It is extraordinarily lethal though, and needs to be a focus of trapping safety for dog owners. While this snare has existed for some time, it is rare enough in the trapping world of Wyoming that Wyoming Game and Fish specialists in Lander and the Fremont County Sheriff didn't even know of it's existence and the representative from the Wyoming Trapper's Association had never seen one and didn't have working knowledge of it.

She was forced to watch her dog die, within less than two minutes, as she desperately tried to free him from the snare.
A beloved dog, Mac, who was rescued as a stray by the Lander Pet Connection and adopted by a wonderful couple who live just a few miles from me, was tragically killed at the beginning of 2020 by a very lethal snare trap, called a "power ram snare", while out for a run with his owner. A recent trapping incident very near to my home in Fremont County, WY is the impetus for this blog post.
