Anyone ever have the forest service re position a trail cam for them

[trphyhntr]

people lose their mind when a citizen touches their stuff, government agent does it and now it's a favor. Fascinating

[trphyhntr]

I mean isn't it f'd up that you're happy that government just mollested your stuff and not stole it

[wildwoody]

He could have taken it, abandon, but weird

[trphyhntr]

i guess if he finds mine he does the same thing then lol

I had it lagged to an old dead tree. So he had to un lag it looked at it for a few minutes and then mounted it back to the tree. I thought it was odd, Figured if he went through the trouble of un lagging it that he would have taken it. Guess he must have been bored That day. hahaha

so it wasn't locked?

what's the purpose of lag bolt if not locked?

could't he just take the cam out of the box?

definitely weird...

I have had plenty of cameras stolen. I have also had some interesting pictures on my cams from funny guys. I have even had guys take my card out look at my pictures and leave the camera and put the card back with there picture on it (actually ran into the guy who did it while hunting)Had a conversation with him and he even told me where one of his cams was and said i was welcome to look at his card for info on the area he had it in. Weather it is the Forest service, Game and Fish or just A fellow hunter. All of those options are better than showing up to find a camera gone.I'm sure there are plenty of guys who lose their minds over a lot of stupid Crap, I'm just not one of them. As long as I get to keep whats mine, I'm ok with that.Glad You find My logic so fascinating..haha

My camera was not in a box. It was just a camera lagged into a dead tree. Purpose of the lags was to keep the camera secured to the tree. In my experience if some one wants your camera they are going to get it. I leave the bottom unlocked in hopes that if a lazy scum bag comes across my camera then maybe he will just take my card and not bother bringing tools to un lag the actual camera. Just my thoughts.

i got my first humans on trail cam last week, i dont think they saw it

[208muley]

What's fascinating to me is that he got out of his truck......... That's all

[Blakehanley]

maybe he thought it was a forest service camera and took it down then realized it did not belong to the forest Service? I do not know if they set any up or own any even but you never know.

I had a cam on the 6B side facing a fence where elk, deer, and antelope cross facilities g the army depot. Army guy hopped the fence and turned it 180 degrees so it wasn't facing the depot anymore. I'm assuming it was army depot guy from the pics bet can't tell for sure.
