Trapping debate turns confrontational at Fond du Lac fair
Pam Johnson of the University of Wisconsin says public opposition to leg held traps is high. About 24 protesters gathered Saturday at Fond du Lac County Fairgrounds during a four day National Trappers Association convention. Wisconsin Trappers Association president counters that traps do not break bones and most trappers use foot held devices. A spray incident occurred as protesters began leaving, with police investigating a skunk odor spray on a female demonstrator.
