FUTURE TRAPPERS OF WISCONSIN 

Welcome to WTA!  (1963 - 2010) 47 Years 

The Wisconsin Trappers Association (WTA) was organized in 1963 by a small group of individuals concerned about the future of our trapping heritage. Many of these individuals were also involved  in organizing the National Trappers Association four years earlier.

Today’s members work to:

bulletProtect our heritage and continue the traditions of the trapping community
bulletEducate the public about the benefits of responsible and regulated trapping activity
bulletMaintain a conservation ethic and participate in wildlife and habitat management programs
bulletProvide a comprehensive trapping education program.

We work to ensure that today's trapping opportunities will exist in our future. We encourage a large membership which:

bulletMaintains a public outreach program that provides informational materials in many forms and at a variety of events
bulletProvides scholarships to students attending college
bulletConducts trapper education courses and workshops.

As we move forward we will continue to increase our membership and to create opportunities which strengthen our association and the trapping community. We will do this through our public relations activities, our formal education program, and with the many volunteers in our membership who step forward each year to teach and help at events or activities.

We encourage your participation and appreciate your visit to our website. Browse our site and feel welcome to return anytime for up-to-date information on trapping.

And by all means, click on Join Us and become another proud member of the Wisconsin Trappers Association.

Sincerely,

                                                         Virgil Schroeder, President
