Abstract
An improved rotating frame animal trap includes jaw-forming sides which, in the closed position of the trap, are projected toward one another from parallel sections of their supporting end members. This configuration provides the correct jaw spacing in the closed position of the trap to maximize the jaw pressure for a given spring force.
