cam cards wiped....

[growalot]

I had checked cameras a while ago and they had 20+ pics a piece on the cards...this is every body and their brother are in the area to shoot off fire works and such weekend....went out and found two cameras ...thankfully not stolen...but the pics had been wiped > ...suppose I should be happy they knew enough not to have the cops up here : ...now cams have to have new batteries put in them ...so they'll last a few months way up in the trees angled down...A holes! : I don't know how the one missed the plot watcher...

That really suxs. People have a tendency of losing their  self respect. Thankfully you have your cameras.

Sorry something bad happened to your trail cams...

As a non-computer literate dum$hit, I am not aware of what WIPED means in regard to trailcams..What actually happened.?..  I'm guessing perhaps somebody erased all your pictures, in a layman's terms...

Looks like you had some tresspassers that may have had their pics taken , realized there were cameras and eraced the evidence . Just a guess .

I think "wiped" is a "southern-tier term !  :

Hmmmmmm....  I've spent all of my life in the Southern Tier, and to me "wiped" means...

Well....ER.......We won't GO there... ??? ....

Hey D [Pygmy]...

Wiped probably means the pictures were dumped somehow?  I don't know how they could do that either.

I guess they think us Appalachian Hillbillies down here talk funny  :'( .

If the people that were NOT supposed to be there had a digital camera with them, they could have erased your memory cards in very short order.  Just happy that they didn't steal your camera's while they were at it.

Yep figured thats what happened or....the guys that hunt the lease next door had a small card reader and was checking my cams as well....

either way all they had to do is open it up and select delete all if they  thought it caught them...all other cams were fine...but in a whole differant area....yes lucky cards and cams were still there but they know I'd have the cops up here...and that would have led right to them and would have seriously put me on a war path...which would lead to my schooling them for the next few years as to why...when walking past a calm hornets nest...you don't poke it with a stick! ..now they're just nats needing a swat...I'll just put the cams up high....

"wiped" is a common term with actually many meanings ...one of which is to destroy....eliminate.... clean or to clear of...as in my hard drive was wiped

Boy we know exactly how you feel. We had a 1 year old Moultrie IR camera stolen 2 years ago in August. Filed a police report, for what that was worth.  Police said it was getting to be more common today. 200 bucks out the window. Today, if they want the camera, they have to smash it, to get it off the tree.
