Pennsylvania Trappers Association - Furbearers in the Keystone State
About this episode
In Pennsylvania, it’s hard to throw a pinecone without hitting a hunter or fisherman. There are hundreds of thousands of hunters and fisherman in the Keystone State.
But, there's another breed of outdoor sportsmen that are often forgotten about. They hunt their prey not with rods and reels or bows and guns but with traps.
On this episode, we're going to be talking about Pennsylvania’s furtakers. What they trap, why they trap and the state of the hobby here in Pennsylvania.
I am joined on this episode by Dan Lynch. Dan is a retired Wildlife Education Supervisor with the Pennsylvania Game Commission and 20-plus-year member of the Pennsylvania Trappers Association.
