Dan Lynch is an active member of the PA Trappers Association. Each year that the PA Game Commission has a new cadet class of Game Wardens, he is asked to teach a two-day class on trapping. Here are some pictures from the April 2025 training. Dan, and the PA Trappers Association president Charlie Sykes, taught the cadets Furtaker Education, Cable Restraint Education, and a full day of beaver trapping. The first photo on the right shows Dan explaining some techniques for successfully trapping beavers to the group of PGC Game Warden Cadets. The second photo shows some cadets practicing the basics of snaring beavers.
