    Coyote Biology and Behavior

    In this episode I touch quickly on what could be a major impact on the fur market, related to COVID.  Then I go through a general overview of coyote biology and behavior.  As trappers, we should be experts on the game that we pursue, so I thought it might be helpful to review some data regarding coyotes, hopefully to improve our effectiveness as trappers.  Coyotes are a pretty interesting critter anyway, especially looking at their expansion throughout North American, and possibly soon South America.

    Meat Trapping

    In this episode I talk about eating furbearer meat.  If you’re a trapper or hunter, odds are that you’ve at least considered eating various wild game.  I think eating some of the meat we catch is a great opportunity to introduce others to wild game as well as give us some additional arguments to those who don’t approve of trapping.  The fact is, when handled properly it is quality tablefare, and a great talking point!

    Trapping Harvest and Historical Data

    In this week’s episode I dig into some trapper survey data and find some historical data of trapper harvest from several different states, some dating back to the 1930s.  It is very interesting data and highlights how important it is for trappers to accurately respond to those surveys.  Our game agencies rely on us for good data, and if we don’t provide it to them then they don’t have good data to manage the resource with.     To get your hands on a Shortliner Trapping Bag visit - https://www.coyotetrappingschool.com/product/shortliner-trapping-bag/  Trapping season is coming quickly, be sure to get your supplies from Kaatz Bros Lures, www.kaatzbros.com and email me with questions or podcast ideas kris@coyotetrappingschool.com  Trappers Academy - https://www.coyotetrappingschool.com/trappers-academy-now-open/ Data Links discussed -  https://www.michigan.gov/documents/dnr/2018_michigan_furbearer_harvest_survey_report_678251_7.pdf https://www.ncwildlife.org/Trapping/Learn-Resources/Surveys-Reports https://www.iowadnr.gov/Hunting/Population-Harvest-Trends https://www.inhs.illinois.edu/files/6515/5138/2740/2017-2018_Trapper_Report_FINAL.pdf https://www.pgc.pa.gov/InformationResources/MediaReportsSurveys/AnnualWildlifeManagementReports/Documents/11101-17z.pdf

    Ryan Carpenter - R and R Trading Post

    In this episode I interview Ryan Carpenter, one of the R’s of R and R Trading Post.  Ryan and his wife, Renee, have a fur sewing business in Pennsylvania.  We talk about a wide range of topics including how Ryan got started trapping and how they got started in the fur sewing business.  I love seeing our fur get used here locally instead of being shipped off and never getting to see the final product.  To follow along with Ryan and Renee, or to order something you can visit their website - https://www.randrtradingpost.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/randrtradingpost/?hl=en Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/randrtradingpost/  To get your hands on a Shortliner Trapping Bag visit - https://www.coyotetrappingschool.com/product/shortliner-trapping-bag/  Trapping season is coming quickly, be sure to get your supplies from Kaatz Bros Lures, www.kaatzbros.com and email me with questions or podcast ideas kris@coyotetrappingschool.com  Trappers Academy - https://www.coyotetrappingschool.com/trappers-academy-now-open/

    In it FUR the Money

    There are a lot more benefits to trapping than a fur check, which is a good thing in times like these when fur checks are slim to non existant!  There are plenty of things that trapping teaches you, and the network and connections you make as a trapper can unlock opportunities that you may have never otherwise been able to take advantage of.  As we approach trapping season, I hope there are plenty of us out there chasing fur, regardless of whether it has a high value or not.  It's good for the trapper and good for the environment.  That's a good combination in my book.
