Personally I never received any money from the gofundme but he did pay for accommodations on a few trips to region 3( $268.00), where we took 19 wolves. I know over 1600 snares were mailed out to trappers across bc and I hope they hit many of their targets. For the year you guys are talking about , I took 19 wolves and 15 coyotes . Pro Guide66 I believe took 26 wolves and 18 coyotes. Using the formula that the BC biologist use I was told that those numbers saved over 3800 ungulate in their life time. In the last three years I have spent close to $21,000 of my own money on wolf trapping some things like walking freezer & snares will last me many years but close to $15,000 was on gas, trapping supplies, truck repairs , accommodation, food and many other things that just cost a lot of money. This year my 14 year old son spent every penny he has ever received to buy a trapline for himself and guess what TRAP WOLVES. So if you like hunting ungulate we now have a area of over 2400 square miles that has a very good wolf trapping program being run on it. And who benefits from it ALL THE HUNTERS THAT USE THE AREA not me, It just costs me time and money. So can we talk a little about the people on this site that bitch about everything, you know who you are. You seem to have something negative to say about everything that is going on but I am sure you are the ones that sit on your asses and do nothing, wait till its to late to do anything or hope someone else to do it for you. You are wrecking this site, many great people have left the site because of these so called Hunters, conservationist or outdoors men. If you feel the need to bitch about everything you read on the site maybe it's the wrong site for you to be on. Personally at one time I love logging on to this sit a few times a day , now a few times a month and Pro guide he gave up a long time ago. Just my 2 cents worth.
Thanks and everyone have a great season and be safe out there
Thanks Trapman for all the work and effort you + you son do on trapping wolfs .
