Le trappage et l'élevage d'animaux à fourrure comptent parmi les activités les plus anciennes au Québec. De nos jours, le Québec autorise l'élevage de deux espèces à des fins de production de fourrure : le renard et le vison. Les entreprises ou les personnes qui se consacrent à cette activité élèvent les animaux et veillent à la préparation des peaux avant de les vendre. 3, record 1, French, - %C3%A9levage%20d%27animaux%20%C3%A0%20fourrure
