Remote-controlled music players are indispensable tools for today's hunters. The memory cards in these devices have recorded all kinds of sounds of birds and wild animals such as sparrows, larks, storks, cuckoos, weasels, jungle fowls, etc. Depending on the purpose of each hunting trip, they will play each appropriate sound. Music players are often attached to many kinds of traps to lure birds and wild animals. Photo: Huy Thu |

Nowadays, net traps in the fields have been mainly replaced by plastic traps (plastic rods, plastic rods). These are effective traps for catching storks, herons, sparrows, and larks. If it is a plastic rod (a V-shaped steel rod covered with sticky plastic), it is usually attached to a decoy bird and a music player. This device is attached to a pole on the wall of a house or in the fields, and any birds that fly to land on it will get stuck. Photo: Huy Thu |
