It seems with over 10,000 people on this site, odds would say that out of that many people we must have at least a few trail cam thieves among us.
So everyone who reads this, please answer the poll, yes or no. This is totally anonymous, nobody is going to know who answered yes.
Thanks.

"No, but I would if given the opportunity."
Come to think of it, the only camera I have come across was locked up with a heavy duty cable, and not only that but it was in the bottom of a canyon where nobody in their right mind would go.

I think that's the best insurance for not getting your camera screwed with. I got one picture of a hunter walking past my camera on the game trail, and I don't think he saw the camera.

The closest that I have to that is I was taking a leak in the woods and noticed that there was a trail cam pointed at me, so I borrowed the card for the evening. I erased my peeing picture off of it and put a picture of a huge buck on it along with a bigfoot picture and a couple of African animals on it. I put the card back in his camera the following morning. I never disturbed any other pictures on his card. I hope the guy had a sense of humor. I was thinking that it might show up here.

When me and my teenage buddies found it we helped ourselves to a few of the Raniers they left inside while they were gone for the weekend. We were on a survielance mission.....

yes. off my property. i left a note but they never called so i guess i stole it.
I had this happen, found two of them on my private (posted) property... Left a note and the guy actually called to the days later, not only did be get his cameras back, he got officially trespassed by a sheriff's deputy... Deputy didn't think the guy would show us, but sure enough he did... Wasn't too happy I took down his cameras and wiped the memory cards... Deputy reminded him he was lucky they didn't just disappear and then told him to be on his way.
I can't say in would ever touch a trail cam that wasn't mine and on publicly accessible land.

He looked me right in the eye, smiled real big and replied, "not now honey, people are watching".

I am the one person who voted no and would given the oppurtunity
The reason why is if it was my camera that was originally stolen I would want it back. Also would steal one if they put it right over my camera or salt lick. I would only steal the memory card and would replace it with a new one ;).
Then that wouldn't be stealing :dunno: that would be retrieving your property...

I've taken the SD card out, wiped out my pic and returned... I've set trail cams out plenty of times but each time, i'm fully aware that this may be the last time i see it. A local farmer i know found a game cam on his property last year, he smashed it up with a stick and left it. The camera owner found it and confronted the land owner and wanted to be reimburssed for his loss. The land owner told him where to shove it. So the camera owner takes it to small claims court and the land owner was forced to pay the damages even know this guy didnt have permission to put his camera on the property.
:chuckle: :chuckle: yeah I was surprised when I heard that. I couldn't believe he took it to small claims court. Although one thing he might have had going for him is that the local land owner only leases that piece. He doesn't own it. But I really don't know how those laws work. I heard the land owner thought it was a WDFW camera... :chuckle:

I've had my pic taken by several over the years. I would never touch, mess with, move, damage, or destroy someone else's camera on public lands. If encountered on your private property, removing and leaving a note seems appropriate, follow up with local LEO's if you wish, but to destroy... not cool...
I don't advocate tresspassing, but say your car breaks down and you leave it in a pull out alongside the road... maybe that pull out happens to be private property... you might expect your vehicle be ticketed and towed to a local impound... but crushed and left for you to collect... you'd be pissed and likely win your claim...

We found one put up by some Total greenhorn right on an old overgrown road 5 min walk from the main road in a secret honey hole close to Maple Vally, pretty sure this newbie had followed me in just days Pryor. Wiped his SD card clean and gave him the bird and maybe Bare assed him??? Then left the camera off as a lesson. 2010a lesson on what? Being an azzhat? Why would you screw with someone else's gear? How is turning it off going go teach him anymore then seeing your picture on his camera. Complete *censored* move...

Even though I may fall into the self righteous classification, I agree 100 with grundy on this. I guess it's okay to physically mess with someone's equipment, but not okay for me to park on a public road and glass animals.

That's not the point! Just because some one hangs something of value in a noticeable place does NOT make it OK to mess with it. This world would be a better place if people didn't think like you.

Your not going to get any support from me Bone!!! I look forward to reading about your adventures every year. You seem to be able to document (photographically) your hunts unlike most and they are always an interesting read.
Just giving you a hard time. I, like most, would obviously love to see the pics and hear the story but understand the hesitation. Any chance you will post up some pics without a story? maybe just in the 2012 bucks thread.

So I have to say I agree with you on this statement 100% .... This forum is NO WHERE NEAR the great place it was when we joined..... But that is to be expected unfortunately, when you go from 1500 members to over 12,000... You lose all that informal family atmosphere, and camaraderie.

QuoteI hear that alot. There are lots of good folks on here too. I didn't post my hunt on here this year as I figured I would have to deal with crap or I didn't want to contribute to the crap by my negativity of the adventure, I was pleasantly surprised of the support actually.
Your not going to get any support from me Bone!!! I look forward to reading about your adventures every year. You seem to be able to document (photographically) your hunts unlike most and they are always an interesting read.
Just giving you a hard time. I, like most, would obviously love to see the pics and hear the story but understand the hesitation. Any chance you will post up some pics without a story? maybe just in the 2012 bucks thread.
Yea I would like to see it too Bone so I can determine where it is drive to the exact spot and wait for another deer to come out as they ALWAYS travel in the same area year after year!! :chuckle:

We found one put up by some Total greenhorn right on an old overgrown road 5 min walk from the main road in a secret honey hole close to Maple Vally, pretty sure this newbie had followed me in just days Pryor. Wiped his SD card clean and gave him the bird and maybe Bare assed him??? Then left the camera off as a lesson. 2010a lesson on what? Being an azzhat? Why would you screw with someone else's gear? How is turning it off going go teach him anymore then seeing your picture on his camera. Complete *censored* move...
Always curious if he was on this site?
:yeah:

I don't think I would want to share a campfire with someone I couldn't trust alone with my stuff....Trust is the biggest factor in my opinion
Post by: BK Dave on December 06, 2012, 01:29:34 PM
I'm sorry that I think messing with someone else's stuff is wrong. If that makes me a demigod, internet do gooder, internet cop, etc. Then so be it. If you think that then I would hate to see who you consider a normal guy. I guess I was just raised different. I don't think I would want to share a campfire with someone I couldn't trust alone with my stuff....I hate that I feel compelled to even respond to you once again, but quite honestly I'd rather talk to you face to face! We're both Westsiders, why not meet up with me today after work and I'll take you to this Very same spot and show you exactly the scenario.
Perhaps a little reality check would do you some good instead of sitting they're judging me.
Seriously lets go. Tomorrow you can jump back on here and say " hey I was wrong and kinda a pompous prick and Dave's a good guy and WOW who would have put there camera there???

It doesn't matter where this person placed THEIR camera you SHOULD be able to put a camera in the middle of a parking lot and not have to worry about it. Guys like you are the reason I can't. I won't take you up on your offer because frankly I want nothing to do with you. You are very rude and inconsiderate of others. I highly doubt I would think you're a good guy.I'm sorry that I think messing with someone else's stuff is wrong. If that makes me a demigod, internet do gooder, internet cop, etc. Then so be it.

I pulled the SD card put it in my digital camera found my picture and deleted it. Then placed it back in the camera and moved on.DUDE RUN!!!!!!

You cleared his entire card, bare assed him, flipped him off, took his camera down and left it on the ground as a "lesson." pretty sure we are talking about 2 different scenarios here. The camera Cory deleted the photo of the owner doesn't know the wiser. You (BK) do nothing but come across as (keeping it HW friendly) a very unkind and mean person who finds joy in tampering with other peoples property.

Much To my surprise there are muilitible posts about people messing with cameras on here and even 2 people claiming to have stolen them?? And none of these posts rilled Grundy 53?!
Only My post did an he attacked instantly Leading me to believe it Was his camera I messed with? Idk just seems awful
Edited for profanity. Read the rules!!
I even offered to meet you and show you this location of said camera. you shied away?
TRUST? That's funny I'm pretty sure I was 100% honest with what I did! When I did it and How! And at the end of the day there was no harm no foul! camera was left were it was found now wasn't it
Bottom line, I messed with an ill placed camera It was a practical Joke at best!
I'm done talking about this and I really have to question wether or not I want to belong on a website with so many people like Grundy53
There are some great guys on here but the majority seem to be self riotous judgmental Jerks only looking for the mistakes in others and focusing on negativity. This site used to be fun and folks could come home jump on line and say Anything! Now it's so Damn PC ya can't share a damn single thing with out a Pack of wolves ready to pounce and tear ya apart should there be One tiny little imperfection, or deference of opinion.
And I swear to God I've Never met such a large group of perfect Angeles who have never missed, messed up, got lost, forgot they're tags, tagged an Ear or antler, gut shot, lost and animal, shot the wrong animal, shot after dark, shot over a fence, didn't notch they're tag, Had a beer in the console, trespassed, hunted high,removed plugs from gun, road hunted, used a Quad or shot under 100yrds saw Sasquatch, shot Sasquatch!!!
It's kinda Sad

Got a Moultrie D55 for $45, free shipping. :IBCOOL:
It would be funny if It already had pics on it and the chain it came with was obviously cut. :o :chuckle:
i had a 55 stolen from me this year
Yes that would be funny but this one is brand new, in the package.

I've seen a few cameras... Two were right between a favorite spot for wandering BT from one food/bedding area to another.. The day we found them Dad and I made it very clear this wasn't a secret spot in a fun way... Figured the pics would've made it on here by now but no dice... If you can picture two guys.. Farther and son... Sitting in front of two different cams going back and forth arguing and pointing at the cam while smoking cigs and waving our guns around... I even took my shirt off, tied it around my head and ran by both while Dad slowly crept along with gun at the ready... Bet we killed those batteries!! :chuckle: Never saw them around there again.. :dunno:They were'nt mine, but that probably would have made me pick up and leave also :chuckle: :chuckle:

I thought at one time I would check the card but don't think I would even do that now because it would do me no good. If I saw a giant animal on the camera it would only discourage me. I don't want to hunt an animal somone else is hunting if at all possible. I don't really even want to see another rig where I am hunting.
I'm sure every one of you has already thought of this but... I always thought it would be super funny to try to get a Sasquwatch fever started by making a suit and getting on a camera somewhere. Mybe not but if the pic were taken in the right area and it was just convincing enough I think it would take hold and start a buzz. Sasquwatch stuff cracks me up!
