Traps that “Catch, Hold and Hold-Up,” "They just work!"

Bear Vs. Beaver-In a Comstock Cage

We got this pic from Glen in Washington.  A bear must have spotted the live beaver in the cage and went for an easy meal.  Looks to be a pretty big beaver by the tail, but no match for a bear.  Yup, the cage wire took quite a beating, but with the trigger on the bottom and doors at the ends, none of the firing or locking gear was hurt badly, not much at all.  Glen ordered a couple of new traps that he needed anyway and got some new wire and clips with them.  He just removed the bent stuff and clipped on new, back in business and has already begun catching beaver with the repaired trap, no problem.

With the configuration and upside down setting method, though the bear did a job on the wire, the rest was in good shape, one more plus never figured on, but nice to see that the trap could be salvaged.  From the beginning these cages did not just meet expectations, but at every turn have continued to surprise us in dozens of ways for durability and function.
