I have to ask this
« on: October 26, 2014, 01:18:41 PM »
What kind of an a-hole steals another hunter's trail camera?    Trail camera was set out on private property over by Geneva for tracking this year's deer season...only two of us have permission to hunt the entire property.  Granted my camera was old and did not support the capability of using a locking cable or security box but, WTH?    I just don't get it that people think they can go wherever they want whenever they want and take what they want.   On another property we hunt, we have no trespass signs and we've seen evidence of past intruders.  Whatever happened to hunter etiquete and integrity?

It went the same way as common sense and common courtesy.

Sorry to hear your cam was stolen.

We have no tresspass signs but we get people time to time as well. People suck sometimes. Ive heard most bad people steal the cards and not the camera.

Some trail cams probably get stolen when someone realizes their picture was just taken while they were trespassing.

I believe it died in about 1962 or thereabouts...
