Default Organized wolf trapping

There is a thread on huntbc where a bunch of guys are pooling resources to support the trappers in their hunting areas to take care of some wolves. I thought it might be something to think about. I know the past few years have been increasingly worse for wolves where my family hunts.... Check it out and let me know what you think.

Yup....Govt refusing to acknowledge and address the real problem in BC. Ungulates getting whiped out. Good on guys stepping up to help lend a hand and trappers for doing their part.

So what can non-trappers do to help trappers?

We are setting up EMT's to local trappers and help pay for their trapping, specifically wolves. They have to be registered and known trappers from others, like having references, before they are getting involved. And they have to be trapping wolves!!

There is a grounds root movement starting and it is by the guy who is known as Proguide66 on FB and owner of How to Hunt app. He is deadly of wolves!!

It sounds like this is going to be big here in BC!!!

Cheers

I help out my trappers by donating trim & bones etc to them

call them when i spot pack activity in a area

staying away from bait sites

defend them publicly in conversations

go to Rendezvous and volunteer

1 pack of 15 wolves need's a lot of ungulates a year(1=22 less)

trappers are a friend indeed

Thanks to all of them

That’s a great idea with the bait donating, I will have bones, trim, hide etc... if any wolf trappers anywhere close to airdrie need them. They would be available in around a week or so after I take butcher the elk
