PAINLESS RABBIT TRAP
Frank Sawyer, a Wiltshire water bailiff, received a cheque for* £3OO from the Society for the Pretention of Cruelty to Animals for his intention of a new rabbit trap which is painless in operation. Sir Robert the society’s chairman making the presentation, said: “We have been searching for 40 years for a trap like this. It will be produced on a large scale.” Sawyer said he made the trap from old perambulator parts. The rabbit treads on a steel plate, and is caught round the throat by two arms.
