Title: trail cameras
Post by: Baggman on August 12, 2010, 09:45:36 PM: Has anyone ever had a bear steel a camera? My buddy locks his up. Says he lost one to a bear. Claw marks in the tree. Is this a common thing?

I have some video of the same thing when a bear ate my camera.........I think you're on to something....I think he could sense that I am a dentist!! :chuckle:
