Took me 4 years before I snared my first wolf last year! This year I managed 4 in snares. Lost 2 due to breakouts!

In all honesty I do it for the enjoyment as well mark. The losses each year they occur from wolves are sometimes balanced by the gains of other species, sometimes they aren't. I'm not complaining about this at all.
But if the province was going to start paying "professionals" to come on mine and others Traplines to try and decrease the wolf population I would have a problem with it.
