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.

Critters like martens, wolverines, and weasels can also have high value.
