GREAT THREAD BOBCAT, i wonder if any thieves on hear have the sack to fess up, i would never steal someones stuff, only thing worse than a thief is a friggin rapist child molester and a RAT, i gurantee there are some thieven jackwagons on here but they aint gonna fess up, friggin low lifes, they have the sack to steal your stuff but they aint got the sack to tell you they stole it.....who the hell else is gonna steal a trail camera if not a hunter....the hunters that do steal are just thinkn "oh sweet, i will go put this in my area that i want to hunt" and then when their stolen cam gets stolen they probably bitch about it.  :bash: :bash: thieves, i say KILLEM ALL...... :tup:
my grandpa always said "if it aint broke dont fix it"

Does walking out of Cabelas with 4 in my pocket count? Just kidding.

Maybe a lot of them are stolen by non-hunters. :dunno: I don't know of any hunters who would do this, I don't think.

Had one cam stolen and two empty lock boxes stolen, and an sd card out of one :bash:. Would love to catch the dirt bags and let them feel the wrath of my rubber blunts. :chuckle:
P.S. I would never steal anything from anyone.
If we were supposed to be vegetarian God would have made broccoli more fun to shoot!
"HOYT" why would you even consider shooting something else?

Stolen one? Hell, I've never even seen one. :chuckle:

I guess it pretty hard to secure a game camera in sage or bitterbrush.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

I have acquired 3 or 4 while walking through the woods. I take everyone one i see because im afraid that the alkaline batteries used will pollute ground water and ruin fish and wildlife habitat if left out for to long. I dont condone stealing but littering is just as bad.  :twocents:
People get offended at nothing at all. So, speak your mind and be unapologetic.

And tree stands, they are just left in the woods so finders keepers...
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

I really don't like the idea of them.   Kind of feel violated for some reason if I were to be photographed out in the woods slipping along some trail. 

I don't like the damge I find from salt and crap left.

Its almost a form of littering to me.

all that being said, no I wouldn't bother other folks property eventhough its on PUBLIC land
