This guy stuck his snout thru a piglet size set but the green limb trick was more than his neck could stand. Notice that there is no catch circle. He hit the end and it was lights out.

It'd heart breaking to go to the work of catching a 3 to 4 hundred dollar cat and feed it to the eagles. And they’ll absolutely clean you out these days in open country. Getting to be quite a few out there.

Giant Sage trapper G Joined: Mar 2017 Wy	Originally Posted by kytrapper No not trying to foot snare. I was saying the heavy cables could be used on drags/clogs with foot traps instead of hauling chain and drags across the country. There’s lions in that area. I’ve been thinking about how to release one if caught. Call the warden and ask them to kindly come and release there cat. Christ is King

I’d try my best to do it myself first just so I could say I once did it. I’m used to releasing bobcats but like I say, them big uns would be something else. Looking very forward to just coming out and being there in an area that has them and occasional wolves go through. Here, closest thing we have are packs of free roaming, deer chasing dogs.
