A return customer wanting more units sent me a picture of his using my units for lions last year, my son worked it over a bit and came up with this. I thought an awesome picture of a few lions visiting the area looking for the unit, which is up in a tree on the right side, thought good enough to show here for something a bit different for others to see.

I wish I had the picture to post, and if I hadn't seen it I wouldn't Believe it. 9 lions in one trail cam pic. Chico buttes near magalia CA. My dad's friend is a wildlife magnet. I don't know how one man can cross paths with so many animals, but the wall of taxidermy at his house explains the lack of game in the hills I used to hunt.

Thanks for the positive replies !!

BP this costumer is a long time buyer and send's me great vids and pic's, but has requested I don't release his name or location
I honor that as my customers are my best sellers for me !

YT LOL well not this time, however thats been done several times to others and I always advise to wire the unit out of reach of lions, they find the location pretty easily however and as you can see will advance to them and try to move them, sometimes they get lucky, other times the user gets lucky LOL

Usually what happens is if the lion can actually grab the unit and move off, it goes silent after the time play is past, then it will go off again in their mouth, which makes the lion think the animal is trying to get away, so they bite harder on the unit and then it breaks and shuts off, they release it a few steps later, sometimes the customer will send the unit back for fixing, sometimes I can just fix them up, most times I just send them back a new units N/C, which is part of my repair procedure in no charge on broken units !!

Wish could use them here.

Drifter sorry about that, they are not supposed to used in Montana either, however, there are many that don't care about that rule as well as their DWR people, doesn't seem fair a government affair can use them but their population cannot !!
