SNARED

Something (often something deceptively attractive) that catches you unawares

Example: "The exam was full of trap questions"

A small drum with two heads and a snare stretched across the lower head

A surgical instrument consisting of wire hoop that can be drawn tight around the base of polyps or small tumors to sever them; used especially in body cavities

Strings stretched across the lower head of a snare drum; they make a rattling sound when the drum is hit

A trap for birds or small mammals; often has a slip noose
