The British Columbia Trappers Association was formed in 1945 as an association of registered trappers. It is the oldest trappers association in Canada. In order to protect species from over harvesting, in 1926, the Province was divided into registered traplines. Traplines are then sold to a trapper so that he/she is the only person with the right to trap furbearing animals inside this area. 1, record 2, English, - BC%20Trappers%20Association
