I think it is BS too especially with one particular name envolved with this story, but as far as trail cams go let me just say this... most trail cams in America are in suburban USA and don't capture half of whats out there. 90% of hunters in America do not install trail cams in what I call remote areas. In fact I believe 90% of deer hunters who are the majority of folks who install trail cameras don't hunt in remote areas anyway. Plain and simple they hunt where they live or close by. Not many people want to put in the effort it takes to haul an animal such as a deer out of areas such as remote mountains or swamp when they don't have too, and trail cameras aint cheap either and not many people install them in areas such as national forest areas where they run the risk of them being stolen. I have lived in Fl. for a good while in my past on a larg cattle ranch that abutted 26,0000 acres of remote swamp and have seen numerous animals such as black bear, Florida panther, rattlesnakes, skunks, wild dogs, feral cats and others commonly in the woods while sitting in a stand and never ever got a single pic of those formentioned critters on a trail cam in 5 years trying. My personal experiences with trail cams is good for deer, hogs, occasional coyote but not good for half or even less than half of what's actually out there. Some critters know better. Just my experience.
