just rember.......what bill tyler said.......beaver will shine again.......and he was right. most ofr the mountain men thought fur was done and buried in the mid 1830s.....the fur industry is a roller coaster ride...........not for the faint of heart.

Fur market and fur industry is going to continue to get worse. If fur industry ever gets any better the fur will have to be dirt cheap, When something becomes of no value the product eventually dies.
I really don't see much growth in the fur markets in the future.

Biden couldn't slap himself on the arse let alone put anything together. I think fur will always be fashionable the same as beef and pork will be fashionable. People will consume it as long as someone else takes the dirty work out of it.
Life ain't supposed to be easy.

Long as people want to fight the elements for a dime an hour there will be some sort of fur 'market'. Here in the south hasn't been one for over 30 years now outside a few years
of sky high otter price's. Glory days are gone, what a time it was.

People will consume it as long as someone else takes the dirty work out of it. I dont think you can compare fur to food or call meat "fashionable".
