Childhood Memories - Chickens

Recalling my childhood once again. I've been recently thinking about the past lately so I decided to share this memory with you. When we still live in our province, I remember people taking care of different domestic animals like dogs, cats and chickens. Chickens are very common in a our province. Anyway, it is a place near the farm so it wouldn't be that strange. Chickens are good runners and has great agility which make it hard to catch one. You would probably run for a very long time just to get one. However, people there thought of a brilliant idea. They set a trap made of iron nets that resembles a basket. Under the iron net are corn kernels, which serves as a bait. The opening was provided by putting a wooden stick on the mouth of the basket. The wooden stick is tied to a rope which when pulled closes the basket. I created a simple illustration of this trap below. Enjoy! (Click here for 9gag.com link)
