Only because bears have been brought up, but don’t they use cable for bears in Maine. Could’ve swore I saw it or read it somewhere. Something similar to a foothold, but when the bear steps or reaches in it releases a cable? I’ll have to check some old magazines or maybe it was on here, but I don’t believe it was an actual foothold style trap.

Dead is dead so not concerned with blood flow, etc, concerned with holding high percentage of beaver, etc. I put them under water on a heavy duty double staked slide rod. Traps with teeth have an advantage over regular and offset jaw traps. The Victor 14 with pit pan system is a killing machine. I catch one or two beaver a year in them.....

Wanna Be Maine is the only state I believe that can trap bears, but it's with foot snares kind of like a big dog proof but with a snare instead
