A woman who got caught in a coyote snare on her own property in western P.E.I. is warning trappers to be more careful about where they set their traps.
Tina Richard has a large property just outside of Tignish, where she is the recreation manager for the town. Her field is separated from her neighbour s by a line of trees. Normally, she said, the property line would run through the middle of that line of trees, but for some historical reason the trees in this case all belong to her family s property.
