Last year I averaged $41 per put up fur, castor was $85 per lb, carcasses $10-15 a piece, skulls $10-40 a piece. The skulls & carcasses only get sold to the right permit holders. Castor and hide sent to auction. Will find out how I do at the auction next weekend.

Meh, I’d rather have a hat.

Thanks for the comment Fazio. Sounds like you’re not very educated in wildlife management. I’ll guarantee you I know a lot more than you about their impact on the environment, which is why all wildlife has to be managed as a renewable resource. Thankfully people who’ve never left the city, or are educated by Walt Disney don’t have much pull here.

@Djmartens Martens, my education or lack of education in wildlife management has nothing to do with my comments. I merely stated that the trapping of animals should be stopped. In the first place, I don't think that it's very humane. Secondly, the death of trapped animals must be extremely long, stressful, and painful. I'm not judging you or other folks, but for me, it's not a go. I simply don't believe in that type of wildlife management. A more humane and seemingly effective management tool is relocation. May I ask if you monetize your trapping endeavors??? Again. I'm not judging, just curious.

@@natfazio2190 All good Fazio! In Canada we trap to humane standards set out by the European Union. A foothold is just a restraining device. I’ve stuck my hand in wolf traps, it just holds until the animal can be dispatched. Chewing legs off is a thing of the past. A killing trap like the one in the video is designed and tested before being approved for use. They have to render the targeted animal unconscious within a very short period of time. Killing snares put the animal to sleep, kinda like an MMA move, stopping the blood flow to the brain not choking. I encourage you to check out Fur Institute of Canada website. They’re the ones who test traps. FIC was mutually picked by trappers, government and the anti trapping folks. Trapping is a time honoured tradition that most people have no idea about. We, involved in the trapping associations are trying our darnedest to change that. A lot of the stuff I see about anti trapping on social media is false.

@Djmartens Martens, we didn't introduce ourselves before. My name is Nathan. I truly appreciate your candid and informative response. Thank you my friend.

@Djmartens your a rich man from North of Richmond ain't ya

@@Dnrtrapping drive a prius

@@dongfloppin22nope

Yes but a new one that doesn't cut and maim like the old ones . I've seen new ones as my neighbor is a trapper and they actually are quite humane and not like steel claws and blades like in the old days

That they didn’t kill it? It was collared & released

I thought at the end he said better put him down

@@aquasenju Yep, that is what I hear too... but the great fact is that they seem to have thought better of that poor idea and called conservation officers to the scene that tranquillised her, collared her and released her.

What’s that the Pineapple Express hanging out his mouth there 😂🎉

Catch & release…..na, population control. I don’t get huge numbers of these fellas. We all know what happens when a population goes unchecked.

What do you think is happening?

Nothing goes to waste but the pelt get sold

Awesome catch

Love it

Awesome catch

FHA & it’s streamed live. Tail comes off, just an oval hide & the castors go to auction

@@Dnrtrapping thanks
