I have 6 Bushnell wireless cellular cams I'll sell you for a great deal. 4 have metal lock boxes you lag bolt into a tree. The idea is when someone goes to try and steal them, they have their picture taken as they walk up and begin stealing thecamera. That will happen and they won't know it. They were $300 each around a year ago when I bought them, plus accessories, locks etc which I also have. You can have them all for $800. I will guarantee they work although we would need to first make sure you get cellular service where you want to use them. I lost my lease and am not using them. Sounds like an awesome deal! Too bad other obligations prevent spending that much on cameras. Thanks for the offer! Put a broken trail cam up easily visable. Put up a good camera and point it at the broken one. They won't figure you have 2 out on one spot. I cam mine by taping off the lens covers, spray camera with spray adhesive and apply real moss I bought from hobby lobbie. Good luck. Similar to my plan for this weekend. I don't have any old cams to use but I am going to do the camo job with natural foliage from the area around the camera. Going to cover it with masking tape and then spray or use caulk for the sticks and leaves to stick to. That way if the camera ever stops working during the warranty period, I can peel everything off and return it.

Looking good. I've been thinking of doing the same with my lock boxes, its the cable that is camouflaging delima. I have boxes lag screwed into tree, cable locked through box & camera and then padlock on cover. At least they will have to work a little harder to take them.

They make some cameras with a gps theft chip now that give its location, they will even notify you if the cameras is moving position, there are also aftermarket devices you can install for those that don't have this yet.

Might be an issue if someone does not know the difference between a blank and a real 12 Gauge shell.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

I wish you could mount that inside the camera with an ink-pack in the end of the cartridge such that if the camera is pulled from the tree, the cartridge fires the black ink pack in the face of whoever is removing it, and on their clothes, and all over anything else they might have on their person at the time. Maybe that will deter the thieving bastards from putting their hands on what does not belong to them.
I bet if we all got creative we could come up with ways to really put a damper on sticky-finger dip-[censored]..

I would have a memory card stolen every now and then over several years at one particular stand. I put all my old or broken trail cameras up at random places around that stand. Only one or two are working cameras. I no longer have my cards stolen. Perhaps they got bored opening cameras to find no batteries or cards in them. I have got pictures of what I assume are hog doggers on the working ones, but always on the move, so too blurry or dark to identify.

If y’all rig up an anti personnel device, you’ll certainly find out who the perp is as you fill out a very large check paying off a lost law suit.

All my etex cameras are in bear proof boxes bolted to the tree. 2 years ago a couple of buddies and I went to Idaho hunting. One of the guys who was letting us hunt his land asked if I would remove the cam and bear box from a particular setup the bears weren't hitting anymore. Well, some idiot(ME) forgot the drill and everything to remove it. I had to shoot the lock off with my pistol. I hooked the side by side up to id, nd event in 4wd, I couldn't pull it off!! they're worth every penny!!
