I had a trail cam out in the back of my property (9 acres) and it is gone. Last checked it on Sunday. Really stinks. The area has cornfields on one side and bean fields on the other side and I live ina development of 41 houses. Three possibilities...the guys who lease the adjoining woods (my back 6 was carved from a 40 acres parcel) were scouting and stole the camera, a neighborhood kid wandered back and stole the camera, or someone from one of the adjoining farms stole the camera.
Guess it is time to post no trespassing sings, for what that is worth. And guess time to take down the hanging stand that was still there.
they have these new things called locks! and,if you know someone with a welder,a theft proof steel camera box is easy to build!!!i"ve never lost a cam(have four hanging right now) but i have gotten pictures of people and bears trying to tamper with it!!
