Shown is a great set for the bobcat pictured below, picture taken on a trail cam. He has been eating chickens. This is the 12x18x39 beaver/otter and bobcat trap. Set sideways it is a full 18 inches high with nothing overhead as the trigger is mounted on the side when set sideways. Notice there is no pan to step or jump over. The bottom cage wires can be completely hidden too, so there is nothing on the floor of the trap to cause hesitation.
The trap is set like a blind trail set where the bobcat has been entering the chicken coup. The bait is not in the trap but beyond it, the chickens. All the cat has to do is make an attempt to take another chicken.
