How to Catch a Hare? A Few Practical Capture Methods

Hares are not only edible, but after capture they can also become your pet. So, how do you catch a hare? Below we introduce how to catch a hare.

1. Catching hares with a simple snare

Find an open area where rabbits frequent. Your snare must be placed where rabbits often appear, otherwise even if you set a trap it is no different from waiting by a stump for a hare. Place the snare where rabbits are often active, and the chance of a rabbit running headlong into the snare will be greatly increased.

2. Catching hares with a pit trap

Dig a large hole. The size of the hole depends on the size of the rabbit you want to catch, generally one or two meters deep and one or two meters wide. The deeper the hole is dug, the harder it is for a rabbit that falls in to climb out.

3. Catching hares with a rabbit trap

Buy a rabbit trap. A rabbit trap usually consists of a small door, a cage and several pulleys. Rabbit traps can be bought at local farms, feed stores and online stores, and the advantage of a rabbit trap is that it can capture hares alive.
