The fur market as a whole has taken even more of a turn for the worse in the past few days. (I didn’t think it possible)
Anyone else heard anything?
Information I got came from a big Midwest buyer.
This is getting depressing.
I know many are going to trap regardless. Just wondering if anyone else has heard anything similar?

Based on what?


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

I'm just a trapper, with the current state of the fur market, I don't think there are going to be many buyers wanting to pay much if anything for carcass animals this year. Unless, they have a taxidermy market there selling into, or there into the bait market and need the carcass.

Who is your big midwest buyer, and what did he say?

I did hear that GFW had put routes on hold.

What happened?Is it another downturn in a already depressed market or is something political?

With the cost of truck rentals and four dollar diesel, maybe more by then, I doubt Fur Harvesters will pick up fur either. But then again, a lot can happen in 3-6 months.....either way!

I'd say, like any market, those that have the actual info will be unwilling to share. How else would you control the "market"?

Mike Wilhite has nothing to lose or gain by sharing information about the fur market.
