Don’t let an outing become a tragedy – be prepared for your dog to encounter snares when you recreate on public lands in the fall & winter months.

For your safety, don’t hike alone and make sure to take cable cutters that cut steel airplane cable snares.

Snares are hard to see. They can be anywhere and are often set on brushy game trails at the height of a dog’s neck. They are so cheap and easy to make that trappers set dozens of them and often don’t bother to collect them all at the end of the season.

Watch how to release a companion animal from a trap or snare:
