U.S. Trapping Statistics

Our success or failure in protecting animals from the cruelty of trapping is measured statistically. Using the forms below you can access statistics maintained by Born Free USA on the numbers and species of animals trapped in the U.S. These figures can also be useful in demonstrating to legislators — and the media and others whose opinions are important to your campaign to ban cruel traps — the extent of the problem. For additional information on how these data are compiled please see About Trapping Statistics.
