Class Purpose:  During the Great Depression, it is estimated that 7 million people died from malnutrition.  Most people that survived had a good knowledge of gardening, hunting, and trapping.  Most people today have lost that knowledge.  This class teaches how to live off the land using snares for obtaining a food source.

Instructor Bio:  Dan Davis started trapping in 1976 at the age of nine.  He attended both Snow College and Utah State University to study Animal Damage Management.  He worked for the Utah Fish and Game Department for two years, then for the United States Department of Agriculture in their Animal Damage Control  Department. He worked for the ADC in both New Mexico and Idaho.  He has done private nuisance animal control for many years.  Eight years ago, he started his own trap and trapping supply manufacturing company, Teton Trap Company in St. Anthony, Idaho.  He has spent many years teaching kids and adults to trap through 4-H and through assisting the establishment of the Trappers Education Program sponsored by the Idaho Fish and Game.

IMPORTANT:   PLEASE RSVP ASAP!  Due to Demand we may schedule an additional class that same day.

Dan will be bringing a lot of individual snares and snare kits with him.  If there is anything in particular you would like to have him bring when he comes go to the Teton Trap Company website http://www.tetontrapco.com/index.html select what you want and call him immediately so he can have it for you.
