Strange trail cam pics

I pulled all the cards on my cams last week, they had been out for four months. Had all the "normal" pics, except for four of an uninvited hunter, I have no idea of who it was, but he was on the fringes of the property. I'm pretty sure he was turkey hunting based on the date. Funny thing was, he walked by at 6:03 am and made a right, two Toms walked by at 6:39 am.............they went straight.

They are certainly different to the pics we get in trail cams in my area.
The alarming ones are the amount of poachers on larger properties (some in reasonable sized groups on quads), some cars, number plates visible and some nudists , one of whom was recognised as being the bitch from dispatch where he works.
 
A year ago just prior to deer season my neighbor found someones game camera mounted on a tree on his property a mile from the house. Upon looking at the pics we found the camera had functioned well, and of course took two pictures of the poachers while setting up their camera. Took the camera and printed out the picture and tacked picture and a note back on the tree telling them they could recover their camera at the ranchhouse - along with a trespassing summons.

Still have the camera as they have not showed up yet<G>.

FWIW we have pretty much stopped the poaching & trespassing problems we have had for years. The mountain is now used by us as well as some classes as a LR and ELR rifle range with many targets scattered around. On the back fences which is how the poachers entered and left are posted signs, "Extreme Danger! Impact Zone for Rifle Range. DO NOT ENTER"
 
Let's see,
Numerous illegals from across the Rio Grande. A friend had a game cam pic of a illegal stealing corn then sitting down to grind it up.
Cougar with a jackrabbit in it's mouth

While in Indiana I kept having camera's stolen. I had a dealer friend that gave me several old cameras and I set them up with another one focused on the 'bait' cam. Got some good pics of the guy from the property behind taking the camera. Called the GW and he wouldn't/couldn't do anything about it. Ran into a sheriff's deputy and he could. I ended up getting my camera's back.
Also got a good pic of a guy carrying out his climbing stand from my property.
 
Here's one for ya...
This is a property that a friend leases and has exclusive rights to be on. My friend takes me there to turkey hunt and he sent me this picture with the caption "look at the beard on this one"
The stand behind the Amish guy is 500 yards onto the property.

It's not a very clear picture, but if you look close there is a bear laying down on the left side of the photo and a cat on the right side.
