| This bear at the log is eating up the oats,corn,alfalfa pellets mix that I laid out for the deer. The other one is messing with the camera. No harm to cam - this time. I will have to bear proof it. | |

| I guess the metal box works great with thieves as well, right? | |

| Nothing is safe from thieves, if they want it they will get it. I use chain and padlocks, and I still worry they will be taken. | |

| Some guys put the cams up high in trees 6inch diameter or less ( bear can't climb it) so the bears and thieves are less likely to see it and the deer think the flash is lightning. | |
