Interesting. That is a good bit of info.
I had seen this before and couldn't remember which was which.

Well remember this is just a way to tell their relative ages. Need to cross section a tooth to get the precise age. I understand but that is a nice quick way to reference what your taking on the line.

Thank you White, it is done. PM me with some information as to photo credits, where info originated etc. I would like to put this in the next issue of the BC Trapper Magazine. Folks this is what makes these trappers forums special, useful educational information like this. ![smile smile](/forum/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

Great info, I'll definantly use it next year to help keep track of my population. I sure wish I still had the 2 I caught this year so I could start my inventory. They were both males so I guess thats a good sign.
