Since 1975, The Utah Trappers Association have been the leading advocate for protecting sportsman's trapping rights in the state of Utah.
The mission of the Utah Trappers Association (UTA) is to promote our privilege of trapping in an ethical manner. As trappers, we are responsible to do all we can to ensure that our rich heritage of trapping will be passed to the next generation.
We place strong emphasis on treating the wildlife that we catch with the utmost respect. This respect begins before we set a trap and carries on in pelt preparation and handling. We strive to educate others on proper and ethical trapping techniques as well using proper techniques with fur handling.
We strive to educate others on the importance of trapping, and how important of a role it is with wildlife conservation.
We are Trappers helping Trappers.
If you are not a member of the UTA or another state or national trapping organization, we strongly encourage you to do so. The future of trapping depends on strong state and national trapping organizations. Join Us Today!
