What hunting methodes and traps did new France use?

In New France, indigenous methods and European techniques were combined for hunting and trapping. Common methods included the use of snares and deadfalls to capture small game like rabbits and birds, while larger animals such as deer were hunted using bows, guns, and dogs. Trapping for beaver, a key fur trade animal, involved setting up elaborate traps and using bait to attract them. The integration of local knowledge from Indigenous peoples greatly enhanced the effectiveness of these hunting practices.
