The invention is an improved animal foot snare adapted to be used with a foot snare triggering device, comprising a snare cable with an anchoring device end and an opposite snare end and a chain with a loop slidably located on the snare cable proximal to the snare end. Said chain has a second locking end intermediately located along the cable, forming a noose with said cable. The locking end has a breakaway means in connection with a one-way locking means slidably attached to said cable which secures said chain to the snare cable for cinching the foot snare. Said device has a swiveled cable pulley slidably located along the snare cable between the locking end and the anchoring device end, where said pulley has a snare attachment means releasably installable to a foot snare triggering device, adapting the present invention to be used with foot snare triggering devices.
