The fur trade in North America began in the early 17th century, around the 1600s, when European settlers started trading with Indigenous peoples for animal pelts. It reached its peak in the 18th and early 19th centuries, but by the late 19th century, the fur trade began to decline due to overhunting, changing fashion trends, and the rise of synthetic materials. The fur trade effectively came to an end in the late 1800s, transitioning into more regulated and sustainable practices.
