An annular body member is of a size capable of allowing an animal to move at least partially through it. A snare line with a running noose therein encircles the exterior surface of the body member and has an anchored end. A trigger is disposed laterally across the interior of the body member and is a flexible type netting which the animal engages when entering the trap. The trigger is positioned to dislodge the snare line when the animal enters the trap. The snare line has elastic characteristics and is capable of engaging and binding around an animal entering the body member to hold the snare line in place until its running noose is tightened by movement of the animal away from an anchored end of the running noose. The trap can be used below ground in a burrowing animal runway or it can comprise an above ground baited housing.
