I was a Vermont veterinarian for 45 years and I saw so many instances of this horrible practice that it brings tears to my eyes when I remember them.
My own daughter’s dog was caught in a trap on the property of a friend who did not know the trapper. Luckily, I was hiking with a friend who was stronger than I, so we were able to release the dog.
It is a cruel, unnecessary practice that should be banned.
