Abstract
An animal trap with rotative tangential doors comprises a main body (1) of open tubing pivoted with rotative tangential doors (2) which are positioned at each of said main body's two openings. Each door is controlled by a latch (4) located at the top of the tubing. At the middle of the body a trigger (3) is suspended by a clamp which is made by hooking both latches with a spring (6). When an animal steps on the lower rim of the trigger, its weight will cause the trigger to drop, thus causing movement of both latches and the simultaneous closing of both doors. The trap is provided with a pair of instant door locks (5) which would prevent the reverse rotation of each of the doors.
