Default Rabbits

Does anybody snare rabbits? I was wondering how to make a snare, or where i could buy one. Do you think a army navy type store would have something like that?

before you go making snares make sure it is legal in your state, cause its not in all states.

I love to use a figure-4 trap (not one that will crush it) Just one of those cage like things that you can put food under and the rabbit will get trapped alive. I use these during the summer when they become a nuisance to my garden.

we use live catch traps in the UK and they work really well as you've seen and fenn mk 6 traps are effective. snare laws are strict here but they are really useful tools to have
