在台灣，殘酷的山豬吊陷阱被廣泛使用於山林與農田，氾濫的程度連國家公園與都市公園都有發現，目的在捕捉山豬或其他野生動物。儘管政府於2020年宣布禁止使用此類陷阱，但沒有禁止持有、販售、製造、陳列及輸出入。法規漏洞和執法不力，山豬吊依然肆意泛濫，導致無數野生動物、家犬、貓，甚至人類受害。
這些陷阱的危害不分物種，任何誤觸陷阱的生命都會遭受殘忍折磨，掙扎中皮開肉綻、肢體斷裂，最終死亡。政府主管機關推出所謂「改良式」陷阱獵具，但只是將陷阱踏板直徑縮小，同樣是無差別捕捉傷害動物的殘忍山豬吊沒有改變。

根據「終結山豬吊」行動報告，自2020年以來，每年超過100隻動物因山豬吊陷阱受傷或死亡，2023年更達310起通報事件，平均每日近一隻受害。這只是我們網路上收集的個案，還有無數的黑數沒有被發現，受害動物中包括台灣黑熊、山羌和石虎等保育類野生動物。此外，山豬吊助長非法盜獵和野味市場，威脅生態平衡並增加人畜共通傳染病擴散的風險。

我們呼籲台灣政府採取以下行動：
1. 全面禁止含金屬材質之彈簧續壓式套索陷阱(俗稱山豬吊)之使用、持有、販售、製造、陳列及輸出入。
2. 強化執法，杜絕非法陷阱的流通與使用。
3. 推動人道且有效的農損防治方法，如電網圍籬和聲光驅避設施，保護農民與野生動物的安全。

邀請您響應全球連署，幫助拯救無數動物的生命，守護生態平衡，讓我們的家園變得更安全、更人道。如果我們選擇漠視，殘酷的陷阱將繼續奪走珍貴的生命，讓台灣的山林與農田成為死亡的陷阱。支持我們，讓愛與責任成為台灣的價值，一起連署，終結山豬吊，保護生態環境！

Ban Inhumane Compression Spring Snares Traps (wild boar snares) in Taiwan 
Join the petition now! [Click Here]

In Taiwan, the “compression spring snare traps”—commonly known as “wild boar snares”, are widely used in forests and farmland, to the extent that they have even been found in national parks and urban parks. These traps are designed to capture wild boars and other animals. Although the government banned the use of these snares in 2020, the possession, sale, manufacture, display, and import/export remain legal. Due to legal loopholes and poor enforcement, wild boar snares continue to proliferate, causing harm to countless wild animals, domestic dogs and cats, and even humans. These traps do not discriminate by species—any living being that triggers them faces horrific torment, suffering torn flesh, broken limbs, and ultimately death.The government authorities introduced so-called "improved" trapping devices, but these only reduced the diameter of the trap's trigger plate. The cruel wild boar snare remains unchanged, continuing to indiscriminately capture and harm animals.

According to the End Wild Boar Snares campaign report, since 2020, over 100 animals are injured or killed by these traps annually, with 310 reported cases in 2023—nearly one victim per day. These are only the cases documented online; many more remain unreported. Victims include protected wildlife such as Formosan black bears, barking deer, and leopard cats. Furthermore, wild boar snares fuel illegal poaching and the bushmeat market, threatening ecological balance and increasing the risk of zoonotic disease outbreaks.

We urge the Taiwanese government to take the following actions:
Comprehensively ban the use, possession, sale, manufacture, display, and import/export of spring-loaded metal snare traps (commonly known as wild boar snares).
Strengthen enforcement to eliminate the circulation and use of illegal traps.
Promote humane and effective crop protection methods, such as electric fencing and audio-visual deterrents, to safeguard both farmers and wildlife.

We invite you to join this global petition to help save countless animal lives, protect ecological balance, and make our homeland safer and more humane. If we choose to ignore this, these cruel traps will continue to take precious lives, turning Taiwan's forests and farmlands into death traps.
Support us and let love and responsibility define Taiwan's values. Sign the petition to end wild boar snares and protect our environment!
