The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) will host a trapping program at the Charles W. Green Conservation Area. There is no cost for the program, but pre-registration is required. “Trapping is a rewarding and time-honored tradition in Missouri,” said MDC Conservation Educator Jenna Stiek. “Trapping is a vital conservation tool to help keep Missouri’s wildlife populations balanced and healthy. This program is a great way to introduce the basics of trapping as multiple traps and styles of sets will be demonstrated.” The workshop will cover the benefits of trapping, ethics, regulations, trap types, sets, trap care, animal histories along with skinning and fur handling. Participants are asked to dress appropriately for the weather. Rubber boots are recommended. The workshop is open to all ages but those younger than 14 must be accompanied by an adult at all times. To register for the program, or for more information, contact Jenna Stiek at 573-815-7900, ext. 2886, or Jenna.Stiek@mdc.mo.gov. For more information about Missouri's trapping regulations, permits, seasons and much more go online to mdc.mo.gov/hunting-trapping/trapping. |
