MB 316.2 - Trapping on Shabbat: Blind, Sick, and Old Animals

In this episode, we explore halachic nuances of trapping animals on Shabbat, focusing on cases involving blind, lame, old, or sick animals. We discuss when trapping incurs biblical liability versus when it's only rabbinically prohibited. We also examine the use of dogs in hunting and its moral implications, both on Shabbat and during the week. Join us for practical insights and classical sources that clarify these complex distinctions.
