To provide a wildlife harvesting device capable of reliably and safely capturing wild animals by using a gimmick used for a conventional catcher.SOLUTION: The catching device which closes the opening / closing door of the entrance of the wild animal A by using a gimge, a safety confirmation sensor X (hereinafter referred to as a safety confirmation sensor) for detecting an animal (including a person) approaching the cage from the outside is provided in the opening / Separately from this sensor, a main sensor Y for sensing wild animals that have completely penetrated into the catchment cage 1 is provided in the catchment cage, and when these main detection sensors Y react, the opening and closing door 10 An advance notifying means for prompting closing is formed on one end side of the existing gimmick 2, and on the other end side of the gimmick, interlocking with operation notifying means. The closing execution means for closing the opening / closing door 10 uses an existing trick.(FIG.【課題】従来の捕獲装置に用いる仕掛けを利用し、野生動物を確実・安全に捕獲できる野生動物捕獲装置を提供する。【解決手段】野生動物Aの侵入口の開閉扉に仕掛けを用いて閉塞する捕獲装置において、開閉扉10及びその付近に、外部から檻に近づく動物(人を含む)を感知する安全確認センサーXを設け、このセンサーとは別個に,捕獲檻1内に完全に侵入した野生動物を感知する主感知センサーYを捕獲檻内に設け、これら主感知センサーYが反応した際に、開閉扉10の閉塞を促す作動予告手段を既存の仕掛け2の一端側に形成し、仕掛けの他端側には作動予告手段と連動する。開閉扉10を閉塞する閉塞実行手段は、既存の仕掛けを利用する。【選択図】図1
