I saw 5 mole traps at the King County transfer station in Enumclaw. Is that calling the kettle black or what. Bunny huggers ban grip traps and then *censored* when they can't have someone trap their moles for fifty bucks a piece. Maybe it's alright for the state and county to brake the laws they put into place.

No, They have a spring loaded bar in them that acts as jaws.
