Show Notes
In this episode Mark is joined by Doug Chiasson, Executive Director for the Fur Institute of Canada. Doug and Mark discuss two recent trapping stories trending in the news across Canada. One story is from Prince Edward Island involving a tragic story of a family's dog and illegal trapping on private land and the second story is about an urban bobcat in Calgary Alberta with a trap on its foot. The guys assess the anti-trapping angle in each of these stories and they provide a nuanced assessment of the two stories and the likelihood commercial trapping was involved. As well, this episode provides some tips for backcountry users on how to be prepared for the emergency of a pet getting caught in a trap.
