Coureurs des bois, or "runners of the woods," were independent French-Canadian fur traders who ventured into the wilderness to trade with Indigenous peoples. One of the main benefits was the opportunity for economic gain through the lucrative fur trade, as they could acquire valuable pelts and sell them in European markets. Additionally, they often formed strong alliances with Indigenous groups, which provided them with protection, knowledge of the land, and access to trade networks. This lifestyle also allowed for a degree of freedom and adventure, as they lived outside the constraints of colonial society.
A French fur trapper and a hunter are two different things. Fur trappers are in search for the animals fur, to sell or trade. But a hunter is hunting the animal for food. They will probably use the fur as well, but the meat is what they seek.
The days of coureurs des bois ended because the coureurs des bois were bringing to many pelts in so the king set them free
Coureurs de bois hunted a variety of animals for fur trading, including beavers, muskrats, foxes, and bears. They were skilled trappers and hunters who traversed the wilderness in search of valuable pelts to trade with European fur traders.
The coureur de bois, or "runners of the woods," needed beaver pelts primarily for trade, as they were highly sought after in Europe for the fashion industry, particularly for making hats. The demand for beaver fur drove much of the fur trade in North America during the 17th and 18th centuries. Securing these pelts allowed coureurs de bois to establish profitable relationships with Indigenous peoples and European traders, ensuring their economic survival and influence in the region. Additionally, beaver pelts were a form of currency in trade networks, further underscoring their importance.
Runners of the woods is the literal translation of 'coureurs des bois', but they were simply called that because they went largely on foot deep into the Canadian wilderness to trade in beaver pelts.
