DNR Conservation Officer Honored by Minnesota Trappers Association

摘要

Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Conservation Officer Tricia Plautz of Henning was recently named officer of the year by the Minnesota Trappers Association (MTA). The officer of the year is selected for their work on MTA's tanned fur project where donated raw furs are tanned, dressed and used for educational purposes at such places as county fairs, youth outdoor programs and trapper/hunter education classes. "Trapping is a heritage tradition and I enjoy seeing many continue the sport for future generations," Plautz said. "I especially enjoy educating young adults on the aspects of trapping and value of each animal."
