Pig Catcher Works Like Extra Hand HOG EQUIPMENT & IDEAS Hog Equipment & Ideas (351) 21-4-18 This new-style pig catcher was introduced at the recent World Pork Expo in Indianapolis, Ind. Designed for picking up piglets that weigh up to 7 lbs. and grasping larger animals by the leg, the Critter Gitter features a locking mechanism in the handle that al-lows you to secure the tongs around the animal, freeing up at least one hand when necessary. It's 44 in. long and is made of stainless steel and aluminum. It's fitted with a handle on one end and a pair of plastic tongs on the other. The tongs are adjustable to three different girths simply by shifting the rubber sleeves, which have different inner and outer dimensions. Sells for $59 plus S&H.
