Hi I am looking for statistics on injuries that occurred when people are setting traps or checking trap lines. Just the type of injury and number of injuries per year.

There are almost 10,000 groups involved in trapping for Predator Free 2050. Injury statistics would indicate if it is worthwhile to invest in traps that are safer or easier to operate. It would also be nice if the data includes information on whetehr the injured person was a volunteer or professions (e.g. trapper, farmer etc)

Having quantitative data will help to determine the value of investing in development of 'better' traps, or maybe invest in educational resources target at specific user groups
