North American Trapper Dakotaline Raccoon Snare

The snare is pre-loaded for speed, which allows the loop to close rapidly upon contact. This quick reaction time is critical for preventing raccoons from backing out of the snare before it secures.

The floating deer stop acts as a safety feature by preventing the snare loop from closing completely beyond a certain point. This allows non-target animals, like deer, to potentially pull their heads out if they accidentally trigger the trap.

Yes, the 7x7, 3/32 inch steel cable is the industry standard for raccoon-sized game. It provides the necessary tensile strength to hold securely while remaining flexible enough for the snare to function properly.

The LoPro lock is designed for a smooth, reliable grip, but it is always good practice to inspect the lock and cable path before setting. Ensure the lock slides freely on the cable so it can close quickly when the animal passes through.

The heavy-duty 9 gauge swivel allows the snare to rotate freely as the animal moves. This prevents the cable from twisting or kinking, which significantly reduces the chance of the snare failing or breaking under tension.
