so three weeks ago i put out a live trap to capture an injured lynx. at least thats whet the locals were saying in that area, no luck. so yesterday i go pick up the trap and no sooner get home when i get a phone call about and injured bobcat,snare wire trapped around body, so i was pretty sick so i layed on the couch and watched the 500 and the wife set the trap, an hour later she had the little bugger in the trap-she out fished me last year, now she out traps me.
so we took him to the wild at heart centre and this am the vet will remove the snare, i got a very close look at this little guy and the snare was not tight, but another awesome wildlife encounter for me, mrs eagle will be in there this am assisting, hopefully i can be involved in the release to i can study its tracks, very small guy am waiting on the measurements but i will assume it is this years kit, i am guessing about 20lbs but will add to this when linda gets the perticulars

What kind of snare did it get caught in? Sounds like the snare might have been pulled loose?
