A mouse walks calmly inside a transparent tube. There is no blood, no springs, no agony. It simply waits, trapped but unharmed, for someone to decide what to do with it.
That is precisely what World Animal Protection advocates: humane traps catch the rodent alive and without injuries, so it can later be released into its natural environment. No chemicals, no violent mechanisms. They are safe for children and pets, and can be reused for years.
The organization sums it up this way: poison causes slow deaths from internal bleeding that last for days, spring traps often fail and leave the animal mutilated, and glue traps are the cruelest of all. Faced with that, a trap that only holds and releases suddenly seems like the common sense no one ever taught us.
