My father taught me this, as he was both a dog lover and a trapper. In 40 years of trapping the only non target animal I ever caught in a Connibear was a very unlucky mallard. I have released animals, including a great Blue Heron, unharmed, from properly sized legholds. <br /><br />Best Regards, <br /><br />Richard Grossman Kerry Cowmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08426257934404448332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-65113189243721329142013-01-04T23:22:23.905-05:002013-01-04T23:22:23.905-05:00I have never seen a conibear trap, but you might b...I have never seen a conibear trap, but you might be surprised at how often the thought of them crosses my mind. Right after I shudder at the thought of them, I thank you for the release info. The last thing I do is live in fear I'll forget what you try so hard to teach about them.<br /><br />SeahorseSeahorsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00133454380103294333noreply@blogger.com
