Garry McLaughlin's "Muskrats" Book covers history, habitat, scouting, sign, tools, trapping, skinning and pelt preparation. This book was written in 2009 and contains instructions for the beginner and the young at heart. This 128 page book contains thorough information. Garry has been trapping and learning about muskrats for over 60 years. His desire to teach the young and uninformed how to pursue, find and trap muskrats and how to properly handle the fur after they are caught has inspired the writing of this book. Garry believes that trapping muskrats should be the first animal a young person should pursue. They are the easiest to learn to catch and learn to handle the pelts. They also give a young person the opportunity to learn, not only about nature, but something about themselves.
