An enclosure for debilitating an animal is disclosed herein. The enclosure can include a compressing plate, a plurality of structural supports, a support surface, and a sensory deprivation shield. The compressing plate can be configured to receive a force causing the compressing plate to move in the direction of the force. The compressing plate can then debilitate the target animal within an internal region between the compressing plate and the support surface. The enclosure provides convenience and control for the hunter over the target animal, while avoiding the use of weapons or traps.

A dome-covered rodent trap for capturing rodents. The trap has a base formed of walls and two openings through which rodents may enter. A snap mechanism for trapping rodents is secured to the base. A movable dome also is attached to the base. When the trap is set, the movable dome is maintained in a raised position. However, when the snap mechanism is triggered by a rodent, the movable dome moves downward to cover the base—thereby forming a sealed container around a captured rodent.

A glue trap for trapping vermin has a base flap and a cover flap formed by folding a cardboard sheet to create a folding hinge. At least one slot is formed in the cover flap at or near the fold line. A target surface of non-drying adhesive is installed on or over the upper surface of the base flap. Optionally, a target surface of non-drying adhesive is installed on or over the upper surface of the cover flap. In one embodiment, a tilt trigger having a bent angle shape has its first arm appended to the target and its second arm inserted into the slot opening of the cover flap, and in contact with the rear surface of the cover flap. The trap is installed with the base flap over a horizontal support surface and the cover flap disposed at an angle thereto and preferably in contact with a vertical surface, such as a wall. Vermin will stick to the adhesive and try to escape, causing a tilting motion of the tilt trigger and urging the cover flap to fold over the base flap and over the vermin caught on the target surface. In another embodiment, a riser is formed at the fold line creating the hinge of the trap. Movement of vermin caught by the adhesive moves the riser near the fold line downward, which causes the cover flap to fold over the base flap at the fold line.

A system and method for trapping and securing wild animals, especially hogs, by using a flexible perimeter fence attached to a counter weight. Springing of the traps drops the counterweight and pulls up the perimeter fence around the wild hogs. A modular frame breaks down easily for users to carry the automated hog trap into and out of the backcountry easily.
