DES MOINES, Iowa - Another exciting season starts in Iowa this weekend. Iowa trappers are gearing up for the start of furharvest season, which begins tomorrow across the state.

He adds that there will be several species of furbearers that will adjust to the drought conditions. For more information, visit iowadnr.gov.
