Hello,
Indeed they can be tricky to set .. ask Calli .. I think they are legal here, as long as they are set in a tunnel and are check twice daily .... the gins are purely illegal though. Camile |

The use of snares, traps etc. is regulated under the Wildlife Act. Your local Wildlife Ranger (NPWS) would be able to advise on the legality or otherwise of such a trap and if legal, the way it would have to be placed etc. chook |
