The main theme on the trap line is the humane and respectful aspects of management of fur bearing animals. The line consists of 127 square miles of divers boreal forest, a "northern" forest of mixed species, both deciduous and coniferous. This provides for a rich array of fur bearing species including weasel (ermine), mink, muskrat, beaver, marten, fisher, fox, coyote, wolf, lynx, river otter, and red squirrel. This region also includes a plentiful supply of other mammals, whitetail and mule deer, elk, moose, and bear.
