A humane animal leg hold trap designed to restrain a Raccoons paw or foreleg. The trap has an enclosed bait area behind a pivoting gate. The gate opens when the Raccoon pushes on it with its paw and foreleg to reach for the bait. The Raccoons paw or foreleg then becomes wedged between the gate and the housing. The Raccoon provides the holding force of the trap by attempting to remove its paw or foreleg from the trap. The trap has a double swivel anchor chain attached to the traps anchor bail which restrains the Raccoon and the trap at the traps set location.
