Title: New Cam Destroyed
Post by: Halo on September 14, 2012, 09:52:39 PM: Went to check my new Bushnell 8MP Trophy Cam that I put out in my back field only 3 days ago tonight, And it along with the bear box it was in was completely destroyed. I was fairly sure it was elk bow hunters sneaking in trespassing. Then I got a call to work and when I got back to the house I heard a shot in that direction. 15 minutes later after I got to work I got a call that WDFW was looking for somone who had arrowed an elk on private property near by so I called them to tell them about my camera. And it looks like they got the Trespassing, Camera destroying low lifes. I will go look in the morning to see if I can find the SD card. I am hoping they found the card on the suspects. I'm not sure if the elk has been found yet, I should find out more tommorow. Atleast they got them.

Spent several hours looking for the camera, & looking for blood only found parts of the case and the club they used to destroy it, the bulk of it is missing. I figured out what the shots were and they were un-related.

Doesn't matter what "bear box" you have, if they want it they will get it. The boxes are meant to keep critters out and the honest person honest. Theives will get it if they want it.

Jason, that's in his own field, private property. He shouldn't have to worry about it.

Post by: Biggerhammer on September 26, 2012, 08:32:56 AM: Looks to me like who ever did it, had already found the camera prior and had returned later prepared to get it. I sure as hell know when I bow hunt, I don't have anything on me that would even come remotely close to doing that type of damage. Sorry for your loss >:(
