Hunter-trapper Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the last five years working in field operations where precise trapping, population monitoring and evidence handling are part of the daily routine. At [Previous Company] I helped coordinate weekly field runs that covered more than 150 square kilometres, with traps and sample collection logged using standard terrain packs and GPS. I’ve learned to keep the focus on safety, accuracy and ready problem solving when weather or terrain throws a curveball. I align with your need for someone who handles traps, poison handling, and data logging with care. I’ve built a routine around trap maintenance and checking, as well as basic species identification in the field. I’m comfortable with the logistics of travel to remote sites, and I’ve worked with helicopter field travel for access to difficult terrain. Realistic, practical approach to data collection and population monitoring is central to my day to day. There was a shift last year when we faced an unexpected spike in activity in the northern zone. I adjusted the trap rotation schedule to reduce bycatch and extended the monitoring window by two days. We recorded population numbers and spread changes with a clear log, and the tailings were processed with proper evidence handling. The outcome was a more stable dataset and a clearer picture of how to allocate resources across the region. I’m available to discuss how I can contribute to [Company Name] in this role. I can be reached for a chat this week and next, and I’d be glad to supply references from colleagues at [Previous Company]. Kind regards, [Your Name]
