Journal, a local trapper, Nevada Dept. of
Wildlife, TrapFree Oregon
Your pet
is likely to be hysterical. Wrap it in a blanket or jacket.
Have a companion hold the animal still.
Carry a sturdy pliers, a
10" hacksaw blade (you can wrap the bottom in tape for
a handle), and a 12" bolt cutter. Carry these items
especially in winter months when traps are set for
furbearers.
If you cannot free the
animal, maybe you can cut the trap loose from its line and
carry it along with your animal to get help.
