These Trailcam images were taken on our new property located on the Tamiami Trail side of the Everglades National Preserve (Loop Unit). All of these images were taken in 2004.
You must keep in mind that Everglades deer are very small compared to any other place. A monster would weigh 150 lbs, but the average deer is around 75 to 100 lbs. These tiny deer are yearlings. Hopefully after a year or two of eating at my feeder, they will fatten up.
Another constant threat to the deer and hogs are the panthers. A couple of years ago, there were deer and wild hogs everywhere. Now, they are almost non-existent. One of the State or Federal agencies just released some Texas Cougars out in my area to bolster the genetic is the endangered Panthers. So far, they have seemed to decimate all the wild game. It will be a miracle if these two yearling deer survive the year.
Also, please excuse the mess. When we bought this property, it was previously owned by generations of junk collectors. So far, we have filled over five 20 yard dumpsters with junk and removed it from our property. We probably have another five more to go. It all takes time and money.
The Nuisance Bear!
(April 2005)
This bear started making himself home on our Everglades property one evening. He came back three nights in a row that I am sure of because we have an Audio/Video surveillance system that I had just installed. It is a very nice system that has three cameras and microphones. (It is capable of four.) I watched him take a bite out of our pool, a cedar chest and numerous other things before he grabbed a 12 pack of Diet Coke before he ran off for the night. As you can see, he has been tagged twice as a nuisance bear. Hopefully, I can get the Game and Freshwater Fish Commission out to capture him again. He is a real pest!
These photographs are placed in chronological order. The time and date is stamped in the lower right corner of the image. As an example, "22 23:13" is telling you that the picture was taken on the 22 day of the month at 23:13 hours military time. (11:13 PM)
