I think the hares in North America like the Cotton tail and Snowshoe are a furbearer.

Here is the list that I have for myself. As regulations in different states change doing your research is paramount. I'm trying my best to get all on my list before they put me in the ground. Plan on spending tens of thousands of dollars for travel, new gear, permits and a place to stay. I have a small toy hauler that holds a chest freezer which I keep running with a gas generator. I'm scared to add up the amount of money that I have spent on pursuing my list and the subsequent taxidermy bills. You'll need to travel to many different states to get all the legal furbearers caught. I've been to twelve states so far. I look for the animals that have a legal take season and have a viable market. Without further waiting here is my list:
1. Black Bear 2. Hognose skunk 3. Hooded skunk 4. Striped skunk 5. Eastern Spotted skunk 6. Western Spotted skunk 7. long tail weasel 8. Short tail weasel 9. Least weasel 10. Red fox, 11. Grey fox 12. Swift fox 13. Kit fox 14. Arctic fox 15.Coyote 16. wolf 17. Coati 18.Nutria 19. Red squirrel 20. Mountain lion 21.Lynx 22. Bobcat 23. Badger 24.Wolverine 25.Fisher 26.Marten 27.Mink 28. Muskrat 29.Otter 30.Coon 31. Possum 32. Beaver 33.Ringtail

Are you going to try for the 3 phases of the colored fox?

Boco, If you directed that at me the color phases of the red aren't that important. Priority one for me is to get the species list first. I have seven left from my list of 33. Plans are to knock that down big time this next season. We'll see how that goes?
I won't live long enough to catch all the color phases of the critters on my list. It's taken my sorry self forty seven seasons to get this far! While I'm a trapper first, I would also like to slam the turkey's as I have already taken two of the four species. I'd also like to get all the legal tree squirrels. That would be a great Fall of the year trip! I do know of a couple other trappers trying to do what I'm striving for. I don't know what species they have on their lists or how far they have gotten.
