A trapper is a individual who hunts and traps animals. Some trappers use humane methods to rid an area of a specific animal or to help assist hunters in the capture of animals. Other trappers provide animal pelts to buyers or collectors.

Answer:

The fur trade west of the Mississippi River began in the mid-1700s. At first, the Europeans and Americans involved in the trade did not intend to hunt and trap the beaver and other fur-bearing animals themselves. Rather, they hoped that the Indians in the region would supply the furs in exchange for guns, knives, and traps. By the early 1800s, however, they realized that the Indians could not (or would not) produce enough furs to satisfy the demand for fur in Europe and America.

The companies involved in the fur trade began in the 1820s to employ their own hunters and trappers. These hunters and trappers lived year-round in the mountains, close to their work. The life was hard and it was dangerous. The following screens describe what the daily life of these trappers and hunters was like.
