Our early ancestors lived during some challenging times when the world was wild. They were hunter-gatherers, employing many different techniques to catch animals for food. The use of traps became a popular practice. A trap that is still useful in survival situations today is the deadfall trap. But what can you catch with these traps?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Small to medium-sized mammals are the most commonly caught animals with deadfall traps. However, you could also catch similar-sized reptiles and birds. Deadfall traps are only as effective as the bait you are using (as determined by what species you intend to target); you can also modify them.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Simple yet effective, deadfall traps are simple machines that were developed to make hunting easier. But how do they work, are there variations in the design, how can they be modified to work better, and are they limited in their efficacy to “less intelligent” animals?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Deadfall traps can be used to catch a variety<\/strong> of different animals. The most critical factor<\/strong> in any particular design, however, is the bait<\/strong> that you use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These traps can catch almost anything that fits<\/strong> under them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the table below are some examples of species<\/strong> that are caught in deadfall traps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a>Deadfall Traps, What They Can Catch, And How Effective They Are<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
