The Yukon Trappers Association was formed 1973. We have dedicated board members who’ll work hard in their respective fields.
The above workshop is for regular fur handling, not taxidermy.
Have your say on the proposed changes to fish and wildlife
regulations. Attend the March 4 Whitehorse meeting at the Sternwheeler Hotel, 6-9 p.m, or join the online public meeting (open to anyone in Yukon) on March 23 on Zoom session.
2026 Regulation Change Process
Review the proposals and submit your feedback
through the online survey— your voice matters! Together, we have a
unique opportunity to influence the decisions that shape our
collective future as hunters, trappers, and anglers

Thank you!

The Fur Institute of Canada (FIC), in partnership with the Fédération des Trappeurs du Québec (FTGQ) has recently released a series of eight videos highlighting strategies for reducing non-target catches. These videos are designed to reduce catches of dogs, cervids, birds of prey, and other non-target species, and help trappers understand what to do if these non-target catches do occur.
These videos were prepared to be a resource available to trappers across the country and are available in both French and English. We would appreciate you sharing the videos with your members for their awareness and trapper education instructors. Feel free to also include these videos in your respective trapper education programs.
The eight videos are currently available on the FIC website at: https://fur.ca/fur-trapping/trapping-techniques/. If you would like the video files to host them directly on your own pages, we are happy to make them available to you. More information about the videos is also available on the Truth About Fur blog at: https://www.truthaboutfur.com/non-target-species-and-how-to-avoid-trapping-them/.
