As I walked in to retrieve the card from the cam on my property in the Willipa Hills, I noticed many fresh puddles of pee in one of the normal elk bedding areas. Hmmmm, me thinks..... I must have got a video or two of the bull I suspected was frequenting the area. I get to the camera and find that it has been messed with, and the camera strap was across the lens. "Crap! - I know I didn't leave the camera like that!"
Turns out the boys had a party at my house, pissed all over the place, and the only bull leaving through the front door decided to play a trick on me and hide the evidence. He only seems content once he's pulled the half-hitch out of the strap and managed to leave it obscuring the lens. Sneaky suckers!

I lost a cam down there a few years ago. Always thought someone stole it..guess the elk must have decided they needed it more :chuckle:

Cool video :tup:

I try to help people on the forum when I can. I'd be happy to check your cam strap for you. Just PM me with the coordinates. You're welcome! :tup:
Awesome video.

Goofy elk, I think he had an attitude from being pestered by all the face flies, thanks

A good case and point to get your cams up higher ;). Great footage, thanks for sharing. Goofy elk :chuckle:

My cams are always placed for BT bucks. I've had some spectacular failures attempting to aim cameras from above. Long soaks with nothing to show for it. Every once in awhile I loose a cam to thieves or animals, but I like the head-on view, or even better, ground level views I get on a successful set.
