    Tom Hughes told me the way to make a snare. First of all you have to get about four yards of snarewire. Then you have to wav four wires together and make the size of a rabits head. and then you you have the set it on a run. where the rabit is runing and when the rabit is runing along he wont see it and he will stick his head in it. Then he will pull the snare
