Find Deadly Deer Trans

Game wardens in the upper PENN
sula report the finding of many OF
the most deadly deer traps ever
devised. The traps are made of two
scythe blades, keenly sharpened, and
many wires. The wires are so sus
pended over runways that an animal
will stick his head into them while
running. The wires, fastened to near
by trees and shrubbery, cause the
blades to close and cut off the deer's
head or to sever it's throat.
Over score of these traps were
found in Baraga county, together
with evidence that several deer had
already met their fate.
