We really need to get the message out that wearing fur IS GREEN! They should be spitting on the folks with faux fur.


Much.better idea than mine.

The fur trade is the same as it always was,just in another slump.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I like to think that as well Boco. But these modern times are.... disappointing?

That's what's so surprising about its history.


The courier de bois roamed the country trying to intercept the fur before it got to Hudson's Bay, or Montreal.



Now days the country buyers burn up the highways trying to intercept the fur before it can go to Hudson's Bay/Former Nafa/FHA.





The road goes on forever, and the party never ends.

beaver of this day choke to death on plastic bottle caps and most all of us trappers wear clothes that are derivatives of oil . none the less great post of times gone by .


Gone will be those whom have allowed themselves to be disillusioned beyond their primal instincts.

Some seem to forget that the fur trade is world wide and that there is a huge spectrum of cultural acceptance of fur.


you can vote your way into socialism, but you will have to shoot your way out.
