***** “Wonder what they were “trapping”? Wolves?” ******

Naw ... A Trapline is for Fur-bearing animals. There is no money in Wolf Pelts, most likely Beaver, Mink and Muskrat...

They did however mention a Wolf Trapper in the article, most Varmint Trappers trap for Hire or Bounty or Fun and yeah they can sell the pelt but that is normally just a bonus, they are a GENUINE PAIN to Skin.

I thought I saw on a show that the trappers make some money on their pelts. Wild Alaska or something like that. Just asking.

” there is no money in wolf pelts” WRONG!!! Moscow Hide and fur catalog: Tammed wolf hides $399 to $699 depending on condition and size. Skunk around $60 to $70. otter, $200 to $300. coyote, $75 to $175. cougar , $700 to $1400. Lynx, around $500. wolvering, close to $1000. and this is just a few of their entries. Find them online if interested.
