:yeah: and it isn't a joke because they WILL eat/destroy/steal cameras. Security boxes work well for bears or taking a panel of 1x1/2 hardware cloth and screwing it over the front of the camera. A bear can still wreck this but flossing with wire is unpleasant enough that I haven't had any ruined like this.

Post by: Eli346 on May 23, 2013, 05:05:59 PM: I think the eye in the 2nd pic is too big for a bear. I think it's an elk also.

Post by: billythekidrock on May 25, 2013, 08:26:57 PM: It is obviously a bear in both photos. Besides, the photos are at the same time and in succession.

Title: Re: Cam check what is this???
Post by: Bob Williams1 on May 26, 2013, 06:19:52 AM: Those are both Elk photo's.. I think that first pic the Elk's head is down so its dark colored mane is lookin almost black. And certainly that 2nd photo the features say Elk all day..Big ole eyeball and smooth lookin head...Elk!

Post by: Broker on May 26, 2013, 07:07:20 PM: I'll say both the first pics are a black bear. Not the right color for an elk at this time. If it's not a bear, it must be a sasquatch and you will soon be a very rich man if you can get a clear pic.
