Foot snare triggering device

A foot snare triggering device, said device comprising:

• (a) a trigger plate assembly having a pan tension adjustment means for allowing the trigger plate assembly to pivotally yield to vertically applied pressure, the pan tension adjustment means further comprising:
• a pan tension adjustment bolt, passing through a base plate and pan, a pan tension adjustment spring through which said bolt passes, a pan tension adjustment plate connecting to the said bolt, and a plurality of pan tension adjustment stabilizers affixed to the pan;
• (b) a trigger mechanism having a trigger end and an opposite mechanism end;
• the trigger end engagingly set within the trigger plate assembly and the mechanism end operatively and tensionally attached to an extension mechanism, the trigger mechanism further comprising:
• a trigger assembly stabilizer, a trigger rod longitudinally attached to the trigger assembly stabilizer opposite the mechanism end, a trigger assembly connection attaching to the base plate and engaging the trigger mechanism to said plate, a trigger alignment means located in the trigger assembly stabilizer for aligning the trigger mechanism, and a trigger rod having a trigger catch to engage a mount slot within the trigger plate assembly;
• (c) a snare attachment port located within the trigger mechanism proximal to the trigger end for releasably securing a foot snare;
• (d) the extension mechanism causing the snare attachment port to move longitudinally when the trigger mechanism is triggered by applied pressure to the trigger plate assembly;
• and
• (e) whereby said triggering device triggers the foot snare and allows the foot snare to be released from the snare attachment port after being triggered.
