Abstract:

Eleven species of fur animals are trapped legally in North Carolina each year. The muskrat, raccoon, mink, and opossum are the animals taken in the largest numbers. Wilson describes the people who trap for a living, the best time for trapping, and areas of the state where trapping is done. Tabulations for the fur harvest in 1950-1951 are included.
