   rabbit-burrows are. Rabbit passes can be plainly seen on a field and on each pass indentations will be seen where the rabits put their feet Rabbits when not pursued usually travel in short leaps and put their feet down in the same place on each pass. The snare formed into a large loop is put about two inches on either side of the foot-marks, the lower were forming the loopbeing about three inches from the ground. The loop is held elecated across the pass by means of a stick with a split in it, in the split of which the wine behind the loop is put. The peg is then driven into the grouns on one side of the pass (see Diagram under)
