I think the best trap is the 110 conibear for survival both long term and short. It's simple to set up, can be used for squirells, rabbits, raccoons, and opossums some even have reported useing them for fish. I used one the first day I bought it to bag a opossum that was living under the my house and messing up stuff. Just sat it in front of the hole dug under the house and staked it down with a broken limb and overnight I got the critter. That same trap has bagged several pests since I bought it and a few rabbits that made thier way to the frying pan and the soup pot. Best part is they only cost 5.00 - 6.00 and weigh practically nothing in a pack are thin and only 5"x5" square.
