Interesting but hard to believe that Beaver did not make the Primary Target list for the South. I would have expected it to be a toss up between Beaver and Coyote at the top of that list.

Interesting. I thought western South Dakota and the Black Hills should be considered part of the West.

One good sign, more total trappers today than in 2003-2004. However, need more young trappers to be involved.

Texas is in the West? A lot of Texas is closer to the Atlantic Ocean than it is to the Pacfic.
I once was in Minneapolis and a heard a local radio personality refer to Minnesota as "the northwest".
Maybe in 1830 it was considered to be in the Northwest.

Very well put together, Surprised by a few trap choices, the wolf on page ten looks like a coyote to me.

Thank you... good info to have when discussing with non-trappers.
