Trappers don't want to be left out in the cold - at least not without their new quick-kill traps.
As of January 1, 1995, an act by the European Economic Community will come into effect that bans the import of wild fur into Europe from any country that continues to use leghold traps or does not trap according to international humane standards. Currently 80 per cent of the wild fur trapped in Canada is exported to Europe.
