The Iowa Trappers Association is a state-wide organization that is made up of trappers
that work together to promote and protect our sport of trapping. We were instrumental in
developing and instructing of the Iowa Fur Harvester Education Class for young
trappers.

Legislatively, the ITA is recognized and respected for its opinions in the formation of
laws concerning trapping, hunting and fishing by the Iowa Legislature and the Iowa
Department of Natural Resources.  ITA was involved in the REAP Coalition and it's
passing, and we helped to save the Fish & Wildlife Trust Fund from being spent to
balance the state budget problems.

The Iowa Trappers Association is more than a Trapping Organization......

We are a true Sportsman's Organization!

If you have items of interest to all trappers, legislative alerts, or suggestions for this
website please send them to
