Abstract: An apparatus for trapping animals of similar dimension. A generally wire mesh cage having a finer wire mesh tunnel and baffle permits animals to enter the cage but prevents animals from escaping from the cage. A solid floor and a solid rim around the bottom perimeter of the cage prevents both loss of food and pollution of the environment from the droppings of the animals. A door can be secured both in a closed position and in an open position to facilitate servicing the cage when it becomes too crowded with animals.
