There has been mention of gopher traps with ripe meat attached to the pan. If you are worried about cats and dogs..... I used to hang the gopher traps by the chain from branches on trees. They would dangle and sway in the wind and alot of mornings I would have a magpie either by the head or neck. Instant kills. Never caught anything but magpies. I probably caught 60 magpies this way thru the years.
