A typical adult cougar will/can eat three to four adult deer a month. Add in
what the wolves get, and yep, it can put a dent in the population.

The dent in Michigan deer population is because of unlimited doe tags for the last few years.
There is a few Cougars hiding in these woods, must be getting hungry..

BEARS!
A fawn is born nearly scentless. That’s why they have evolved to just lie still. A bear’s scent senses are so powerful they can easily sniff out a fresh fawn. They just stride over and grab it off the ground with little resistance. Easy daily snack, many times two at a feeding.

Thanks Gare and yes these are trail cams. This one at this location will remain there with new batteries and a solar panel until April 2026 (next April)
We left it there last year for 6 months over the winter and sure was a lot of action with the high light being 2 younger bucks have a good fight...
Will be interesting next April to see what shows up ......

What is the make of that camera ? Does it send you pictures or just take the pictures ?

I use the GardePro A3S as it has been the best trail cam I have found. The detection range is great at 30 - 35 yards, the audio is superb and one has to watch
what you say as it will pick it up a good 50 yards away and the night vision is the best as it throws a soft light way out there giving a smooth clear image as opposed
to most of them that have a short blast white where it is hard to tell what you are looking at. The price point is also great at around $60.00 to $70.00 Canadian funds
but one has to wait for the price to drop as it often does and that is when I've bought... (pic attached) I have the regular cam and not wi-fi so I check the cards every 3 - 4 weeks.
I see PikesPeakCharlie also has a GardePro and I'm sure he will agree..

Which I had some of those near me to eat the deer who have decimated my pea crop.

I have 3 of the spy point cellular with rechargeable batteries. They have been working for about 4 years. The cellular part is kinda expensive but enjoy watching the wild life. I tried the Browning but had to much trouble with them.

Some areas here in B.C. have the very same problem also UnderMiner and this year the count is up for Chronic Wasting Disease ( CWD )
Early in the new year in that area they are allowing each hunter three deer to lower those numbers....

Need to outlaw baiting in the central/eastern US. Group feeding is a problem.

Here it is illegal to bait deer, moose, elk etc in areas such as where this CWD is.
