About Bird snare
"A simple bird catcher."
Bird snare is the entry-level Hunter trap available from level 1 Hunter. Players lay the snare on a tile to catch crimson swifts, copper longtails, cerulean twitches, golden warblers, and tropical wagtails for Hunter XP, feathers, and bones. Sold by Aleck's Hunter Emporium in Yanille and other Hunter shops for roughly 6 coins, the bird snare is cheap, lightweight bird-catching gear used throughout early Hunter training.

Market Strategy
- Investment Notes
- Restocked by multiple Hunter shops, so GE prices stay anchored near 6 gp
- High alch value of 3 gp makes it unprofitable for nature rune alching
- Demand spikes from new Hunter accounts and ironmen sourcing snares pre-Yanille
- Bulk-buying via GE only useful when shop runs are inconvenient
Trading Tips
Buy from Aleck's Hunter Emporium in Yanille for guaranteed sub-GE pricing
Snares break on failed catches, so volume demand scales with low-level Hunter training
Avoid alching: nature rune cost exceeds the high alch return
