are there any trappers here that can teach us all how to make primitive traps, like the ones made from the environment, like out of strings and sticks and rocks and such?

ive always wanted to create a bow trap but never thought it would be safe to do so..

it would be quite scary if someone was just walkin through the woods and set it off and got hit by an arrow... oh geez.. that wouldnt be good...

but still wanted to construct one to see how quickly and reliable I would be able to make one.

when posting this I was thinking of the loop snares set on trees or watever that when the rabbit or squirrel comes through it it springs and tightens around the preys neck, foot, watever, holding it in place or killing it.
