this is AMAZING footage. only $180?! i don't believe that, sorry. the cheapes thermal camera i can find is almost $3,500 most expencive is...$23,500. a thermal scope for a rifle is 11-13 thousad :O GREAT video tho

[CougarMagic]

Thanks! It's not a thermal camera, it's a normal digital camera that uses red LEDs instead of a white flash, and a red filter to make it look black & white. Google "Scoutguard SG550". They're really affordable, and a lot of fun.

Cool Footage, I saw a Mountain Lion in Chino Hills State Park once.How much would one of these cameras set me back?

[CougarMagic]

Very cool - I have never seen one "live". There are a lot of cameras to choose from, but the ones I use are about $180, plus a metal security case, and cable lock brings it up around $210 or so. A good place for info is the Chasingame forum.

Cool, Thanks. I'll check it out that site. I think Chino Hills S.P. would be a good place for one of those Cameras. I've seen a few Bobcats,One Mountain Lion,,tons of Coyotes, Deer, Lots of birds and I've even seen a Turtle in one of the secret water holes I know of.Even a few renegade cows too...Hehe

[CougarMagic]

Chino Hills would be perfect! Lots of hikers there obviously, so just make sure you conceal it well, and lock it up securely. If you start camera trapping, let me know. I'd love to see what you find!

where was this taken . .

[haupper]

@kimmarie801 You'd be surprised. The mountains around LA are very wild, densely vegetated and inaccessible, and there's plenty of mule deer to prey on.

I'm Not Surprised, There's A Rumor That A Mountain Lion Is Living In The Hills Of Griffith Park, So Close To The City.
