Duke Traps 0500 Steel Coil Spring Foothold Trap 6 in Jaw

Product Description

The DUKE TRAPS 0500 is a steel coil spring foothold restraining trap designed to catch and hold wild animals including beaver, bobcat, coyote, and lynx. Built from steel components and driven by compact coil springs, this trap delivers a 6-inch jaw spread suited for medium to large target species. The foothold design restrains animals in place without kill-style mechanisms, making it a preferred tool for live-catch wildlife management operations. At 2.093 pounds, it is sturdy enough for field conditions while remaining portable for trappers running long trap lines.

This trap is used in professional and recreational trapping applications targeting beaver, bobcat, coyote, and lynx populations. It is suited for both land and water-set configurations depending on the target species. Wildlife control operators, licensed trappers, and nuisance wildlife management professionals typically deploy this trap in a variety of terrain types including riparian zones, woodland edges, and open country where these species are active.
