I have not heard that they are not buying. We had a buyer in Grayling ,Kotlik, and Anchorage the last I heard. I am not involved anymore but I would be very surprised if they are not buying at all.

Most of the Fur Bill and Joe handle was/is for the auction.

A buddy mentioned a few weeks ago they were paying $120 for Lynx $60 for marten $30 for otter. Try call and ask if you want.

The Yukon river area is rich with fur. Not hungry country like much of the interior. We have very crazy high populations of most all furbearers, I used to have guys sell me 300 marten twice a year. Fox.,beaver and otter and mink all you want to skin most years. Lynx get crazy high here too. Thats why Goldberg made the trips out this way. Was huge fur producing part of the state at one time and I brought it back, if they didn't screw it up.

I know they lost their azzes on the NAFA scam I always told them to stick with FHA but Nope. So maybe they are broke .lol I am sure NAFA took down a lot of buyers.

Well, my understanding is the yukon expanded. My guess this social program is losing money.

Social programs are not intended to make money. Although this is not a social program , its a get off your butt and go trap program that's funded by us . Note in the graph above its listed as "Employment" "Trappers Income "
