This live-capture trap is most suitable for ungulate projects that do not target a specific sex or age-class. Once assembled and set this trap will work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Simply check the trap each day to ensure every animal is handled and released in a timely manner.
Bait is placed in the rear of the trap so that the animals must touch a light, trip-wire to feed. Doing so causes the door to fall behind them where they will be securely held in a steel-framed box, enclosed with nylon mesh netting. The mesh and steel provide a high measure of safety and security.
You bolt the trap together and attach the pre-cut mesh and the ultra-sensitive, machined aluminum trigger. The steel frame, mesh, trigger, hardware and instructional DVD are included. Traps must be secured with fencing wire to a solid tree or anchored by heavy weights or T-posts.
