The slip knot snare is a variation of the poachers knot. It is used in trapping and survival to catch game. It's important that you know how to make one -BUT DONT JUST GO WILLY NILLY MAKING THEM IN THE FOREST. People with less sense will set these snares up in public-ish areas and end up catching pets or badly damaging big game. It's important to know what type of cord to use and where to set it so the animal hits it at head height. Don't put a small snare in a big game trail because it's more likely to just catch the leg of a deer. In reality, this knot should only be used by professionals or those who are stuck in a survival scenario.
