HOLDERNESS — The NH Fish and Game Department will sponsor a free workshop at the Owl Brook Hunter Education Center from 9 a.m. — 1 p.m. on Saturday, June 25.
Veteran trappers Dick Lafleur, Dwight and Bonnie Pennell, and wildlife biologist Jill Kilborne will give participants a basic overview of New Hampshire’s furbearers and how to set up and manage your own trap line.
Not a certification course, the workshop will cover trapping equipment, basic trapping safety, selective trapping techniques, using best management practices, trap preparation and care, as well as fur handling and preparation. The instructors have many years of experience in trapping, so questions will be welcome.
Space is limited and pre-registration is required. To sign up, call 536-3954. For more information on workshops and other activities at Fish and Game’s Owl Brook Hunter Education Center, visit www.huntnh.com/Hunting/hunter_ed_center.htm.
