    little streams and these cocains were made of rods. The old people also made snares for catching rabbits which were made by wire. There was a loop made at the end of the wire then the other end was pulled through the loop and tied to a stick. The stick was placed beside the hole and the snare was fixed in the mouth of the hole to catch the bird.
