Trapping reform.
This language should scare you. They are not directly attacking trapping. That hasn't worked for them.
They are influencing. We must always remember what we think of this language is irrelevant. We aren't the target audience.
The target audience is the majority of people who don't care one way or the other about trapping.
Propaganda works. Influence works.
Its like the frog in the pot we don't see it coming until it's too late.
Call the FTA and the NTA. Tell them you are concerned about these Propaganda campaigns by the animal rights groups. Ask them to start countering this with our own campaigns. [Linked Image]

We need to point out that their compassion leads to the death and extinction of many wildlife species. We need to point out that their compassion leads to human deaths especially children and bicyclists!Oregon, Washington and California are headed for an environmental and human disaster with wolves, cougars, beavers and otters. Some of it is already showing up.

Mr spike369 i agree to coexist with wildlife there has to be an annual harvest and some could argue that nature has its own way to kill over population off but that usually means diseases and we all know that it would drip down to infecting hunters trappers and all outdoor enthusiasts i myself have been tagged twice by rabid critters and recently recieved two booster shots i taught the state course when it was a two day course now people that take it do it via computor and it is impossible to fail i would think that with more education mandated in the future the animal rights organizations would have no leg to stand on and it would be clear that trappers help keep the enviroment safe
