The Oklahoma Fur Bearers Alliance, and all participants of the annual O.F.B.A. events, would like to thank all of our youth for their active participation and assistance in the smooth transactions that take place during these events, especially the fur auctions. Our youth are greatly appreciated, and recognized as a necessary asset when conducting orderly business in the O.F.B.A. events. Thank you!

In the tracking chart below you will find many of wildlife species. As trappers we should be very knowledgeable on what furbearers we are targeting. And which other critters may be a potential problem in the areas we trap. How to use this chart This chart has been broken into groups by track patterns meaning how the animal steps one foot after the other. These pictures are not actual size so use the measurements provided for each track. Each foot is labeled with a “F” meaning that track is a front foot track of the animal shown. Or it’s labeled with a “H” meaning that track is a hind foot track of the animal shown. Note: The track identification charts were extracted from the T4K website.
