Might be part of the problem

Been seeing quite a few less deer around.
This picture was taken last week here in central California.
The clock and date stamp is wrong(batteries ugh!)

I think that may have a negative impact on your deer population...lol. Thanks for posting.

I think might be the problem is a bit of an understatement!!!

Looks like Africa

 

[velvetfvr]

I think that's more than a problem there

Holy smokes!

Interesting that this camera has no deer pictures on it after dark for 2 weeks. I think the cats own the night.

Ya think! I'd almost be of a mind to add a little corn whiskey to the water and after they drank their fill and passed out, reduce the population a bit!!!

Really crazy,
A few years back I hunted one of the CA "D" zones right up at the Oregon Border.
Saw four does in 7 days. Saw maybe a thousand cat tracks and least 10 sets of eyes after dark that were obviously cats.
Made a move and saw some bucks that were pushed right down into a campground.
Checked the area only a few hundred yards away from the CG and it was littered with cat tracks.

I remember when I grew up in California when they were classed as vermin/predators and it was shoot on sight, then the tree huggers started to take over.

I'd say you have a serious cat problem !!!! Not surprised you don't have any night pics of deer in that area due to the high cat population. Last summer I looked through hundreds of trail cam pics of deer and other critters including a few cats, out of all the pics there were only THREE of deer after dark. If your not getting many/any night pics of deer it's a good indication of a healthy cat population for sure.

They only eat the sick and weak deer in the area, otherwise they just eat mice, sparrows and graze on grasses; we all know that. Look how majestic.
Man this place is a joke
