Two meanings spring to mind:
1. noun - a device used to capture prey
ex: In Boy Scouts, we learned how to make a snare to catch rabbits.
2. verb - to capture something through the use of a snare
By the end of the day, our traps had snared ten rabbits.
3 noun - a type of drum having a hard, raspy tone
I bought a new cymbal and a new snare for my drum set.
