The Arkansas Trappers Association (ATA) is made up of dedicated
men and women who promote wildlife management through regulated
trapping. The ATA actively promotes using the safest and most efficient
traps through trapper education. The ATA has a working relationship
with the Arkansas Game & Fish Commission in the setting of regulations
that pertain to trapping. Each year, the ATA sponsors a raw fur
auction for its members, and an annual convention. Our members are
modern trappers devoted to improving the image and practice of trapping
through workshops, seminars, and demonstrations that promote ethical
trapping practices, and support modern wildlife management and conservation.
The ATA sponsors a number of events each year to improve leadership
and communication skills among its members, and frequently attends
outdoor shows and schools to teach others about responsible conservation
and wildlife management.
