Can you legally trap bears like that in Canada ?

Translation not necessary. A picture is a thousand words.

Caught plenty of bears. Way too much work/elaborate a set up to catch something as dumb as a bear. Probably gonna have to replace the bucket, with all the cutting and fittings that requires, too after bear destroys it. Also that bear is left hanging up by the leg. Unnecessary grief for the bear when it could be anchored at ground level on a much shorter chain or swivel cable. Simple ground hole set up works fine.

Dragging the rag soaked in cooking oil similar to what I used to do when dragging a seal skin, with lots of blubber attached, behind the truck. Just do this coming and going to your sets. Pick an intersection of roads and/or rivers to make your sets. Bears can go anywhere but an intersection is a good place to drawn them too because of the way they move around anyway. For long distance draw take a can of sardines and bend over the tallest young tree you can. Poke a few holes in the can, tie to the top of the young tree, and release the tree to catapult the sardine tin to the top. Gets scent up in the air and moving longer distance I figure. Do this next to your set.

You don't need tons of elaborate bait to bring a bear in either. You only need to bring him in once if you do it right. You are not long term feeding him like a hunter trying to keep a bear around for a shot later.

You can use foot snares, no steel traps

Iowa,
Clips aren't needed, simply make 6-8 slits about inch apart on bucket lid to make tabs to fold out to hold cable. I'd use light wire or zip tie to hold swivel that he just sat over the peg on the throwing arm so a bear didn't knock it off. I prefer single tree less chance of wrapping thru and fouling swivel or suspending like patch mentioned. I'd also poke holes and use wire or zip ties to hold that m-15 in the bucket solidly. Neat video.

problems arise if there are not 20 claws on the hides come marketing time as they can not cross a provincial boundry or out of Canada
RTL's in Manitoba and Saskatchewan it can be done using foot snares
