Set a connabear in a rabbit hole. For sure rabbit everyday. Usually they are still alive when you get them because they have 2 wind pipes. I don't know if you want them dead or alive?

DONT use snares. coyote will have them pick off before you can even get to them. i have never had much luck trying to catch rabbits to train my beagles with but herd of people using apples. you have to coax them in. set bits of apples from the inside of the cage out to about two feet out side the cage. this is the only way i was able to get them but every time i did catch one the trap was fliped over and coyotetracks wereall over it. this is why i say dont try snares.JMO good luck

Ok heres what you do. If it is a single door box trap, take and apple and cut it into 6 pieces. Take 2 of these six pieces and cut them in half so that you now have 4 big pieces and 4 little pieces. Take your trap out into a field or wherever you see most of the rabbits and cover it completely with grass and weeds leaving room to open the door and for the rabbit to hop in. Then place the four big pieces of apple in the very back of the trap behind the trip plate. Place one of the small pieces about a foot or so outside the trap and line them up going into the trap. If your really focused on catching one, you can also oil the hook so that the littlest amount of pressure will set it off. GOOD LUCK!!!!
