The traps are designed to capture a wandering animal and snap its neck.
That did not happen in this case.
The animal was rescued and is expected to make a full recovery.
The association says this recent incident is an alarming trend and they want the Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resources Steve Thomson to take action.
