Right now the garment market is hot for a lot of fur including sheared as well as the silky dark straight haird good early northern beaver.


That is a very good explanation. The strength of the beaver market isn't surprising to me. Now the mink market is another story

I think the main reason is it’s probably quite a bit easier to put up large numbers of beaver down here in a short time, hence making it a slightly better return that it would be for you. But maybe I’m wrong? Happy trapping! ScottW

A forty dollar beaver is pretty much a hundred dollar beaver for me these days...with all the value added's I have with beavers. Plus I can catch as many as I want with little effort.

The wild mink market is not surprizing to me.
The ranch mink numbers are at their nadir and the factories need to keep their technicians working.
With my nink avg at 73 50 cad at the last sale you will likely see 10 dollar rats very shortly.


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