    Dangerous booby traps found on popular Utah trail

    SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - The 20-pound spiked boulder was rigged to swing at head-level with just a trip of a thin wire _ a military-like booby trap set on a popular Utah canyon trail.

    ...

    Two men arrested over the weekend on suspicion of misdemeanor reckless endangerment told authorities the traps were intended for wildlife...
    I wonder what kind...?

    Maybe armor plated, carnivorous predatory deer?

    Not so sure, the BBC article I'm linking to below has photographs of the 'hunters', one of them doesn't look 'right' but I can't put my finger on why...

    Looks like the fellow on the left is modifying his earlobes - isn't that a practice of the Tcho-Tcho?
