Twice on the same day the two of mine got caught on them in a set of reeds not a nice thing but as they say you shouldnt where your no meant to be lol

Not always the case bud. We done a bit of work back at the start of the year and were assured all wires and traps had been lifted or unset. Got down to business and you would be stood waiting for a bolt and notice the hole you just looked at had a live trap in it the other side ! Or chase after a rabbit heading for the nets only to run into a snare along the fence line.. Luckily no ferrets or dogs got caught up.

when we done keepered ground we were always put in a area where the snares were lifted but i dare say they must leave some by mistake
