Probably, but that's not the most humane way possible - the animal may be slowly pressed to death and suffocate after a long while instead of an instant death or quick suffocation.

There's no shortage of large rocks or logs so why use lighter things?

you dont want it too messy,like a rabbit for instance,if i used a 60 POUND ROCK IT BE flatter than a sheet of papper,ok for rats,rabbits and fox squiirel what is a good weight for a deadfall,and when yall said 15 pound would be good,did you mean the weight of the rock,or the pressure it comes down with,and thanks for the help
