Trapper Mike, always impressed by your beaver numbers. How do you mange to pelt/flesh that many (658) beaver. Only 24 hours in a day.

I must have 3-400 FUR FISH GAME MAGAZINES
Not sure of the oldest I have but I looked just now and saw a
---------
1955 edition marked 20cents (67 years old )
---------
Picture framing is better then storing in a box which can't be seen or enjoyed.
The valuation on these magazines has been going upward.
Hopefully you're cabin is secure.

I don’t recognize the truck but pretty sure I saw that roadkill deer leg on the side of the highway this winter.

Default raccoons

I have seen numerous raccoons on my trail cam on my farm south of Edmonton, and wondering whats the best way to get rid of them legally.

Pick up a live trap from Peavy Mart or other farm supply place and catch them that way. A google search will provide you with info about bait, etc. Good luck!

Us trappers might not make a bunch of money but we’re rich in another way with the lifestyle. Peace of mind is worth allot
