More Rabbit Snaring!

[MR TEA POT 1,287]

The next time i snare, i will do mate.

I will explain how i snare:

First of all i put a sharp piece of wood with a hole drilled in the top about 6 inches long, 5 inches in the ground.

Second of all i attatch a 10 inch long bit of bailing twine onto the piece of wood that is now in the ground.

Thirdly i attatch the piece of bailing twine onto a 5 inchish stick and then poke the stick into the ground right next to where i put the 6 inch piece of wood into the ground, then i set the snare as normal.

 

So what happens is:

The rabbit runs into the snare,

The rabbit keeps running for ten inches,

The rabbits neck mostly always breaks when you use this method.

 

this is because it runs into the snare, then that pulls the stick out of the ground and then the bailing twine tightens up as the rabbit runs, and then when theres no more bailing twine left to pull, the neck is broken because of the jolt that the rabbit gets.

 

You might not understand how i have explained it, but i will get some pictures up next time i snare.

Hi mate could you sell me a few of them snares,they sound all right,how much for ten?and will you post them.Nobody sells decent snares so the ones you describe sound just the job.Thanks

Oddly Enough,

 

I took another look at the rabbit with the peg out of the ground, and the neck does appear to be broken.

 

I'm assuming it ran when It saw me and hit the snare at force, it was not stiff when I removed it.

the rabbit may have died in the snare but not of a broken neck. if you want to be sure do an autopsy and have a look to see if the neck is dislocated. your getting good at rabbit snarin now glass!

Glass why not put up your location and maybe somebody in your area could show you the ropes.

Look at some videos on youtube, but if you've snared them properly, they should be dead as soon as they run into the snare.

 

 

No it shouldnt... the snare should just hold the rabbit untill we come and dispatch it.. Rabbits have beats were they hop they dont run full speed down there runs unless under pressure...
