We have the critters, but I am wondering if anybody has a handle on if it is economically feasible to trap in the Southern states. It really dosen't get cold enough here for the fur to get like it does in colder climates. I know places with lots of beaver. I use to feed my coon dogs with money I got from coon hides but then the bottom fell out of the market. I believe one of the biggest companies that deals in trapping supplies is located in Louisiana. They must know something.
