Some people in Montana tried to ban trapping the last 3 general elections. first 2 times they didn't get enough signatures to get the proposal on the ballot, in 2016 they did. It did not get enough votes to be passed but they are trying and gaining ground! This proposal was to ban trapping on all public land and they showed pictures of peoples dogs, wolves and eagles caught in traps... What they don't show is that those animals were caught in illegal traps as it is. All the trappers I know trap way back where the granola munchers wouldn't be walking dogs anyways. They also don't mention the damage that will occur if trapping is banned. There aren't very many people out here who do it as is and we need to keep them around to manage those populations!!
