Title: Bashful bear
Post by: woodman on April 27, 2014, 07:56:22 PM: I don't think this guy likes his picture being taken. This is the last photo that my cam took as he ripped it right off of the tree box and all.

I am hoping that the camera will still work. I hiked back in with stronger anchors to re hang last evening. I will check it soon. This is the second camera that this has happened to recently. The last one is shot. I have never heard of the battery thing before.

Post by: Expedition Scout on April 28, 2014, 05:14:03 AM: I've had the same thing happen and believe its the batteries also. Last year I had a camera hung in a remote are up in a tree 15 ft point down at a wallow, I got pictures of the bear molesting the camera for 2 days before he finally ripped it off the tree and dropped it into the wallow. More than anything else, I have a ton of pictures of bears looking or sniffing my cameras. Doesn't matter what I do to cover my sent, using rubber gloves, etc... so it has to be something about the camera making the smell and that would be the batteries.
