Title: Animal trap

Abstract: A trap of the type particularly adapted to quickly kill a caught animal, to operate equally on an animal approaching from either of two opposite directions, and to reliably trigger the action when the animal is in proper position to be struck at the neck such as to ensure quick killing and prevent escape thereof. This animal trap includes two pairs of jaws arranged back to back, one jaw of each pair pivoting toward an upstanding open position adjoining the other one jaw of the other pair of jaws, a pair of treadle plates pivoted relative to the other two jaws respectively, and connected to a simple and easy acting latch to trigger the same upon stepping of an animal onto either of the two treadle plates.
