| << < (2/2) |
| Hannibal:
I built them to sell on "Maintainable Contracts" for Government job, but have had many inquires into building "custom traps"....and do so upon request with a deposit.... I also have the patented trigger system available ......It can be adapted to any cage configuration and fire up to 5 doors |
| Machias:
How much does that bad boy weigh? Been having good luck with these, regular cage traps: |
| Hannibal:
The cage in the video is 76 pounds, before powder coating..... :) It was Over built to prevent thief and Vandalism, because it will sit in the same location year after year, all year long. It will also be monitored using a camera with wireless access...... Machias? How many have you captured using conventional cage traps? How are you/ and what are you using for bait/lure? Any damage or escapes? And what "class" does the "Average" beaver fall under? (kit, Juvenile, sub adult or adult) I am guessing that the one pictured is a "sub adult" (2 year old)? I have never had consistent luck with "Conventional" cages......And had a door torn off a 1081 havafart.... (good otter trap) |
| Machias:
The one in the photo is a 39 pound adult. Probably caught 30 the past three years using apples. Biggest one I have caught is a 46 pounder in a conventional cage trap. Most during the summer and early fall. I have to pre-bait with apples, but once they taste them, they really like them. No damage to the traps yet. |
