Light lever trap

A light lever trap ("loukku") is a trap for small animals such as hares and grouses. It consists of a two-part trigger-stick mechanism which holds up a slender tree trunk. Moving the trigger stick releases the trunk and drops it on the prey. Should the prey not die upon impact, it will at least get stuck under the weight of the trunk, which is usually increased by placing a heavy stone on it. As the light lever trap is used to small, non-carnivorous animals, baits aren't used, but the trap is placed on the known paths of the animals.
