Abstract:
An animal trapping device with a base having a substantially planar lower surface and an upper surface opposing the lower surface, a wire mesh cage assembly, and first and second wire mesh entrances. The first and second wire mesh entrances coupled to the wire mesh cage assembly and defining an enclosed entrance opening and a second free end elevated above the upper surface of the base and defining an exit aperture, and of a conical shape defining an enclosed entrance channel spanning from the enclosed entrance opening to the exit aperture, wherein the upper surface of the base, the wire mesh cage assembly, and the first and second wire mesh entrances defining an animal retention zone and the exit apertures of the first and second wire mesh entrances each disposed within the animal retention zones and aligned with one another.

Claim (Index 20):
An animal trapping device comprising:\n a base having a first end, a second end opposing the first end, two opposing sides, a lower surface spanning from the first and second ends of the base, and an upper surface opposing the lower surface of the base and defining a reservoir thereon that is operably configured to house and retain a liquid therein; a wire mesh cage assembly coupled to the two opposing sides of the base and having a first end and a second end opposing the first end of the cage assembly; an automatic liquid feeder container housing a liquid therein and disposed proximal to the reservoir and operably configured to continuously deliver the liquid to the reservoir; a first wire mesh entrance with a first end coupled to the first end of the wire mesh cage assembly and defining an enclosed entrance, a second free end elevated above the upper surface of the base and defining an exit aperture, and of a conical shape defining an enclosed entrance channel spanning from the enclosed entrance opening to the exit aperture of the first wire mesh entrance; and a second wire mesh entrance with a first end coupled to the second end of the wire mesh cage assembly and defining an enclosed entrance opening, a second free end elevated above the upper surface of the base and defining an exit aperture, and of a conical shape defining an enclosed entrance channel spanning from the enclosed entrance opening to the exit aperture of the second wire mesh entrance, the upper surface of the base, the wire mesh cage assembly, and the first and second wire mesh entrances defining an animal retention zone and the exit apertures of the first and second wire mesh entrances facing one another, each disposed within the animal retention zone, and concentrically aligned with one another and without obstruction disposed between the exit apertures and within the animal retention zone.
