The odd time though there is no/nil place for snares. Friend has a #4 Jake coyote trap he does not use and can give me. Fairly substantial trap on first look. Opinions on #4 Jake trap for wolf?

If its foot is off center at all stepping in it is going to become an educated wolf. The traps are very solid. Last edited by teacherman; 02/01/24 11:01 AM.
