Why do people want to cover the trail cam so their picture will not be taken

As said right in the original post, "As remote as the spot was" maybe a lot of us like to go into the woods for privacy. Yea yea there's "no" privacy.. but not everyone wants to be watched so why is it automatically something illegal if they prevented pictures from being taken of them. They didn't damage or steal the camera, good on them for finding a way to cover it without destroying it (like we seen so many times).

That python cable and metal security box may have slowed them down.
As for covering with moss, whatever they put over the lens led to about 50 pics of nothing.
The camera had been up for a while. There were over 500 pics covering a month that included cougar, coyote, spikes, 4 pt, 5 pt and 6 pt elk plus what looked like a 5 or 6 pt muley with a real wide rack. Lots of cows too. We saw bear scat, but he was camera shy.

Maybe because it is not the lens that triggers the camera.

The camera lens itself definitely doesn't trigger a picture.

Maybe they don't want to end up on an internet thread titled, have you seen this guy. :chuckle: Be thankful they didn't try to remove it, to get their picture off the card.

It's difficult to do a good meth cook while you're afraid of being identified. :tup:
