Just my opinion is all....

So what's a real trapper ?? It's the 10 year old kid that watches

Daniel Boone on TV after school and gets a itch.

It's a itch that never goes away and must be fed.

Times goes on , way too many notes reading Fur-Fish-Game,

Learning the basics and playing with on the farm

Still time goes by, the 10 year old is now in junior high,

he can't drive yet but has a bicycle and 2 legs.

He struggles at first, but the knowledge is accumulating

By high school he has a beat old rag offa car, no girl

will get into it because it stink of wied smells and dead fish


Time goes on more, he graduates, finds a girl that the

smelldpesnt bother, goes to college or gets a job.

Work starts at 7 am, the newborn child screams off and

on all nite from the crop, then the alarm goes off at 2:30 am

The young man drags himself outta bed, pours a thermouse

of coffee and hits the road, he has 35 traps to check, remake,

and be back to work before 7

Lunch will be spent skiing today's catch on the back of the truck

Carcasses will be hidden and skinned fur will be placed in

a cooler with frozen half gallon milk jugs to make sure it keeps cool.

The story could end now but doest have to, time still goes on

Nice story.Time never stops.

Well. We aren’t biologists after all.


I mean… trust the science or whatever they told us…. Unless it’s biology.

There might be 500,000 trappers and 340 million people in the USA today. Maybe our time and discussion is better spent how to promote and protect the .15% of us instead of trying to further pick ourselves apart. We don't need to worry about the ANTIS when we have versions of those within our ranks.
