Coyotes are easier to snare than trap, in the deep winter snow. Another study done out west found that a single coyote kills and eats 100 rabbits a year. You do the math. The Delta duck study hired a trapper to protect the nesting ducks in North Dakota. I ll get off the soapbox now and back to snaring.
Snares come in different sizes and lengths.
I will give a few basic ones to get you started. This is for small game like rabbits, squirrels, and ground hogs. The snare comes in 4 foot lengths. You can set them in trails, dens, and for squirrels on branches going between two trees. That is why I recommend the conibears because 20 years from now they will still be catching fur.
