From what I've gathered on tman is that the main use for NA mrats are fur hats for folks in ROK, maybe northern China, and the Russians. Do both side of the rat fur go into such hats, the belly plate inside and the back fur on the outside? Any other real global commercial use of muskrat right now...? I see old full and half length mrat coats in thrift stores once and while but I think those days are decades gone. Thanks!
P.S. Where do most of the "hatter" beavs end up, actually making hats for the same folks or is there a different market for those...?

Hey Wiz, thanks for the report. I remember how heartened I was back in winter of 1978 I had traveled to Bordeaux France and it seemed like one out of 20 women was wearing a nutria skin jacket. I kept wondering if any of those nutria were ones I had trapped.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
