photomontage, Traps and snares are used to catch rodents, cassowaries, birds and eels. Rodent
snares are often set along garden fences (a,b). Cuscus are trapped in similar snares set
in trees in the forest (e). Long, tubular bark eel traps, baited with witchetty grubs,
are anchored in streams (c,d). Snares (a,b,e) are used more frequently than deadfall
traps (f).
