Hinges on boars: how to do and put

To hunt for wild boars with a loop is not an easy thing to do. Most prefer to simply shoot the animal from an ambush. But some hunters like to put a loop on boars. In any case, it must be remembered that trapping animals with the help of traps is prohibited and is considered poaching. But what if the firearm is not available? In this case, traps are used.

Why do we need traps?

Wild boars often trample crops and sometimes pose a danger to humans. Not everyone has the right to have a gun, and to escape from the invasion of animals is sometimes necessary. Yes, and shoot a boar - the procedure is not easy. Therefore, you can use traps.

Preparation for hunting

How to put a loop on a boar? First of all, you need to prepare for the hunt. This will take time. It is necessary to study the boar trails and the ways in which the cloven-hoofed are most often moved. Usually such animal roads pass by water bodies, thickets, marshes and blockages of trees.

Kabanyi trails are found in almost all hunting grounds. And even in the most unexpected places. You can find them where the boars rub against the trunks, rubbing their wool. This is clearly seen from the worn-out bark of trees growing next to each other. Before installing the trap, it is necessary to study the habits of artiodactyls.

Why do you need to know the boar trails?

Before you put the loop on the boars, you need to find not only the trails, but also the time of passage. To do this, you can use the electronic clock, which is mounted high on the tree. A thread is attached to the battery of the device. She is caught by a wild boar, passing under the clock. They stop, and as a result, the passage time of the animals is fixed.

What should be the loop?

How to make a loop on a boar correctly? The trap must be made of a very strong material. It should be taken into account that the body length of the wild boar reaches up to 175 centimeters, the height of the animal - up to one meter. The mass of the beast is on average 80 to 150 kilograms. It should be borne in mind that wild boars, if desired, run very fast and man can easily catch up with them. And the loop must withstand the speed along with the weight of the animal when it tries to free itself from the trap. It can be with a brake.

How to put a loop on a wild boar: two ways

Hinges on the wild boar are put in two ways. The first - "on the head." In this case, two strong trees are selected, facing each other. On both sides of the boar trail. The hinge is suspended between trees, in the middle of the path. The height of the loop should be from eighty to one hundred centimeters. The calculation is that the boar will fly into the trap with its head.

The place is chosen with the expectation that the animal can not bypass the path. To secure a number of scattered bait. Loops for wild boars should have a stretch in the middle. It is done to maintain the shape of the trap, which is made in the form of a circle. A small load is attached to the bottom of the loop (for example, a small branch).

Either the required dimensions of the support are installed under the loop. When a wild boar, as usual, follows the path, it falls head first into the noose. With each movement of the animal, the trap is increasingly tightened. As a result, the boar dies of strangulation.

The second method of hunting is the "lower loop". For this, a large hole is to be traced in advance on the trail and covered with a sheet of tin, which has small slots into which the front hoofs might fall. A loop is laid on top of the trap cover and fixed slightly. Then it is thrown by a windmill, knots and leaves for camouflage.

Nearby on one of the trees is preparing a shelter for the hunter. There are many devices that allow you to stay on the branches for a long time. But we must remember that hunters climb down the tree from the lee side, so that the animal does not smell the human smell. The tree should be twenty or thirty meters from the established trap.

When a wild boar moves along the trail, its front hooves fall through the slits of the tin plate. And the animal falls into the pit. At that moment, the boar falls into a loop that tightens the front legs.

Precautions

In any case, when going on a hunt for a wild boar, one can not count only on a trap that has worked. If the loop does not strangle the animal at once, then it can gnaw and chew the rope in an attempt to free itself, until it breaks.

Wounded big wild animals become deadly to humans. A boar especially. It is rather difficult to escape from an enraged animal. A wounded boar weighing 150 kilograms can easily attack a person. And due to the huge weight of the body the animal is able not only to injure, but also to kill.

Therefore, it will not be superfluous to hedge and make loops for wild boars from very strong materials. And also approach the trap, having additional weapons. It will be safer for the hunter and more humane in relation to the animal, which will not have to die from suffocation or suffer with broken legs.
