AGFC Strategic Furbearer Management Plan

Published on Author admin

Blake Sasse, Nongame Mammal/Furbearer Program Leader for Arkansas Game and Fish Commission sent out an email notice last month. Here it is in it’s entirety in case anyone missed it.

Hello Trappers,

                I hope everyone’s season has gotten off to a great start.  If you haven’t already seen it, the report from last trapping season is available here:  http://www.agfc.com/resources/Publications/fur2012-13.pdf

                We are in the process of revising our 2001 Strategic Furbearer Management Plan.  This plan provides high-level guidance on what our agency will be doing for furbearers over the next 10 years and doesn’t get into the details of specific regulations.   A draft of the plan is available for your review here:  http://www.agfc.com/hunting/Documents/StrategicFurbearerMgmtPlan.pdf .  We are seeking your comments on the plan, so please take our survey and comment on the plan here by January 10th:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2013FurbearerPlan

                We have begun to regularly update the list of furbuyers on out web site and will do so every few weeks until the end of the season: http://www.agfc.com/hunting/Pages/HuntingBuyingFurs.aspx
