for all you people that say this doesnt work it does iv caught 3 rabbits in my backyard using one of these made from copper wire, good luck randomly setting one up where tracks are though.. you have to find a well used rabit trail and a spot where if you set it up they cant go around then there forced to go through, this especially works great when theres snow on the ground

@feelmeinsideu you can trap an animal wih that, too make it easier bait the area and fence of with sticks or soemthing so you can control where there walk

Can't what to trie

[Gyradie]

You couldn't catch a rabbit with that thing if it tried to use it as a noose! You would be better off trying to kill a fish with a big stick.

first off no one will ever use this as usefull information.facts are your going to die,or you lknow how to survive.you are not going to remember this video and all of a sudden be able to survive.it takes more energy to trap that anilmal than it does to wild forage food that does not run away.learning how to trap should be the last thing a survilist needs to know.as said you will die trying to catch something.i will be full of food sitting right next to you,and for the record i stopped boy scouts
