Where does it state they are illegal?


Not sure about LA, but Mississippi states that the trap can not have a top, has to allow for a deer or bear to escape

Under the new rules, feral hogs may be trapped year-round. Persons who use snares to capture feral hogs must have a valid Louisiana trapping license. Persons who use cage or corral traps must have a valid Louisiana hunting license. It is required that all cage or corral traps have an opening in the top that measures 22 inches by 22 inches or larger or 25 inches in diameter or larger.

The required opening in the top of hog traps will allow black bears that are inadvertently captured in a hog trap to escape. Persons setting hog traps without the required opening are subject to citation and seizure of the trap.
