Getting the Landowner's Permission

Getting the landowner’s permission is crucial not only for obeying the law but also for safeguarding trapping as an essential wildlife management tool and legitimate outdoor activity. If the land where you trap is not your own, you should consider it a privilege if you are granted access to trap. To protect this privilege:

• Treat all property in strict accordance with the landowner’s requests.
• Always let them know when you plan to access the property.
• Alert them to any issues or problems that you may encounter on their property.
• Thank them for letting you use their property.
