had boar bend 3/4 rebar that was sticking out of the ground 4 inches, bent it almost 90 degree and broke 3/16th stainless cable.
they make deer stops for them.
The breaking strength on 3/16" SS cable is around 3700lbs. How do you figure a hog wound up exerting that much pressure on the snare? Rolling around and twisting the cable up in a knot? I'd like to know, I've seen similar things happen with large beaver caught in snares that should have held the beaver and more. Trapped animals sometimes seem to do the impossible.
