May I present the
mink. Being a trapper since my younger
days, this small member of the mustelid family is probably the most difficult
fur animal to trap on a profitable base.
A few minks in your fur bundle is not an achievement in itself, but
taking thirty or so minks means that you have the habit’s knowledge of this
small ghost which leaves very few signs.
Furthermore, for the size of this animal, they cover a very large
territory, especially the males. Like
for the deer, the trapper who took the time to understand the needs of this
animal and his natural diet will eventually find him and take advantage of
it. Two secrets : fresh baits and
good lures. Have a good day.
