Why trapper education?
Trappers create a positive image when they engage in the responsible and ethical pursuit of our renewablefurbearer resource. Trapper education courses teach basic trapline skills with an emphasis on ethical, humane and legal trapping methods. The trapper education course provides a solid foundation upon which a safe and successful trapping career can be built. It also helps trappers understand the importance of maintaining good relationships with landowners, other outdoor enthusiasts and managers of our natural resources. The knowledge and skills that you learn will be used everyday on your trapline.
