Community > Trail Cameras
Would you check someone else’s trail cam?
TimberMuleys:
Just curious what everyone’s opinion is on this:
You come across a trail camera in an area you hunt. Are you willing to check it? Nothing more, just open the camera, check the card on your phone, and put it right back. Not deleting pictures or messing with camera, just checking the card. (This is also assuming the camera does not have a lock box you would have to mess with. )
And if you knew someone had checked your camera, like stated, would you be frustrated?
I personally have checked cameras before, and personally don’t care if people check mine as long as they don’t mess with anything else. I’m just curious if that is how many other people feel as well?

I wouldn’t. It’s not mine so I leave it alone. I might pose for it, though.

Only checked 2. Both were within 400yds of cameras I had up before theirs were up. Found them going to refresh salts.

I'm not a trail cam guy but personally I wouldn't touch one. I imagine they get stolen all the time? I would not want to break someones camera by accident, or interfere with a series of images from a project. I 100% would not want to be caught messing with someones camara as they come walking down the trail feeling salty because their other 3 cameras are missing/ stolen. I personally would not be upset if I had a trail cam and someone copied or viewed it. I could imagine someone else diving into a fist fight if their camera was touched.
