In my state it is illegal (or was, the last time I checked) to use leghold traps on squirrels. No doubt that is true elsewhere because squirrels are not considered fur-bearing animals. Try a box trap.
it wont hurt too bad if you put all youre fingers into the trap the pressure will be spread out. if you just put in one you might get a broken finger or it will hurt really bad
Have peta check the hospital reports of humans who got broken fingers and hands from traps way bigger than that one. seriously. if traps broke bones all time and caused pain,wouldn't you think there wouldn't be as many trappers as there are today. Every trapper has got his fingers or hands caught in a trap atleast a couple times. But why do we not hear of all these broken bones from these so called powerful bone breaking traps? hmmmmm think about it. more peta bullshit
@smokemansmoker got my hand caught in a 110 conibear almost all the way set it slipped and got my thumb the other day it hurt slightly but if that dnt hurt i doubt a leg hold does
long springs hold better. i can do that with my no. 2 montgomery traps. it syings for a bit but no damage. Out of the millions of trappers who set traps,I think everyone has got their fingers caught in a set trap atleast couple times. even with stronger traps than number 2s. How hospital reports you think are on broken fingers and hands each year? quite low if any at all. Now animals have fur padding and their bones are stronger than humans and better protected. look up the hospital reports peta
thank you for clearing that up! great video!
