[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 895649, member: 41338"] Are you kidding? Trap bans are a systematic approach to eliminating the taking of all animals. Foothold Traps: Foothold traps are not the traps of the vivid imagination in Disney movies. It is virtually impossible to find them anymore with teeth. Foothold traps of today can be had that will cause little or no damage. I've released countless animals caught in foothold traps that had little or no visible damage to the foot and the animal ran of without any perceptible impairment of it's gait. Foothold traps are a "live" trap. As with any restraint equipment, such as a dog leash, it can be misused but foothold traps are an appropriate tool to use Snares: Detractors of snares are generally uninformed, without any practical experience. They would have you believe they catch anything and everything. Nothing could be further from the truth. They are highly selective in what animal they can capture. They can either be made lethal or non-lethal depending upon you need. Proper use can minimize or virtually eliminate non-target ungulate or livestock captures. In short, if you support your right to hunt and fish, you should rally and fight any and all attempts to ban traps in your area and support the work to overturn existing trap bans. [/QUOTE]
