When you have to hunt for survival, you want to play the odds in your favor. Creating a blind, planting a food plot, and using animal signals all give the hunter an advantage. If your purpose is to provide food for your family, you’ll want a system that works even when you’re not there. That is why you need to know how to set traps. Traps are quick, they require almost no additional gear/supplies, and if done right will yield additional food in almost any environment.

Trapping is a tradition way to catch game and should be part of your survival strategy. They are all pretty simple to set up but each have their little quirks, advantages, and disadvantages.

You should set up several traps in different locations that you check regularly. Look for locations that show signs of animals, like some tracks that indicate that animals pass by regularly.

You should also try to set the traps away from your camp or shelter so as not to exhaust the game near your camp. The idea is to catch things further out while you can so that if you become weaker you can still obtain food near your camp. (Be flexible and pragmatic about it – don’t hike out 5 miles just to set your traps if it makes you too tired!)   ---CONTINUED at LINK---
