    bear vs trail camera... bear wins

    a black bear and her cub recently went to town on one of my trail cameras, destroying the outer case including the ir screen and scratchin te lens. I was wonderin if you can buy just the cases as the camera itself is removable and totally fine the camera is a spypoint g4

    Buy a small pelican case and put the guts back together in that.
    Basically a homebrew now.

    Buy the metal case that protects the cam. I have all my cams in them and the bears and elk play havoc with them, they are all still working fine.

    Get a hold of Spypoint and see what they can do.

    Cheers

    Hmm being all serious here are you careful about eating and storing prior to and after you install them ? Maybe a chocolate bar on the drive up ha!!! I have 5 camera's out from april- December with hundreds of black and grizz pics untouched ... luck I think not.
