The
Georgia Trappers Association [GTA] would like to welcome you
to our home on the web. We hope your visit is pleasant and
informative.
The GTA is a non-profit organization
We are interested in promoting the education and growth of hunting, fishing, and trapping while maintaining the highest standards of sportsmanship. We want to encourage public conservation and the protection, restoration and management of water, wildlife, forest and fields. We strive to cooperate with county, state, federal and private agencies having the responsibilities for wildlife and land management.
If you haven't renewed your membership recently, now is a good time. Trappers all over the country are facing extinction and Georgia is no exception. We need the support of everyone to keep trapping a viable outdoor activity for the future. Many states are losing their trapping rights a little at the time. Georgia could be next if we don't pay attention to our sport. Cost is $25.00.

Myth vs. Fact
Myth: Furbearers are being trapped to extinction.
Fact: Due to the huge successes of furbearer management in this century, and in spite of declining habitat, furbearers are abundant. No endangered species are threatened by trapping. |
