Fur-bearing settlers primarily hunted for animal pelts to sell in the fur trade, which was a significant economic driver in North America and other regions. Key targets included beavers, otters, foxes, and minks, as their furs were highly valued for clothing and other goods. The demand for these furs led to extensive trapping and hunting, often resulting in significant impacts on wildlife populations and ecosystems. Additionally, settlers hunted for sustenance, using the meat of these animals for food.
