As I continue my quest to build my own personal survival tin, I found some info on snares. Commercial snares come with a swivel loop on one end that is attached to another swivel or loop on the cord/wire that's tied up or staked down.<br><br>A drawing of a survival type snare shows this being done by twisting loops in the interlocking wire. It would seem to me that the wire loops could be snapped by a spinning animal as it struggles.<br><br>1. Could a fishing swivel work better in this situation? Or is it too weak?<br><br>2. What's the biggest animal one should try to snare using the brass wire in the kit? Squirrel & rabbit only?<br><br>Thanks<br><br>Willie Vannerson<br>McHenry, IL
