Tom,
Doesn't the motion sensors get tripped by wildlife?

I always said give the deer a gun to shoot back. Obvious where the
odds
would lie.

Al Cummmings, who wrote a bunch of cruising guidebooks years ago, once
worked
as a radio DJ in Seattle.

One year, on the opening day of deer season, he put on a hollowed out
trophy
head and stood next to one of our busy arterials with a rifle,
pretending
to
take aim at passing motorists. In the 60's this was funny. Somebody
would
gun
him down or call the Homeland Security forces on him these days.

Wow! Up here the police put out deer & moose silhouettes trying to entice
poachers to take a shot. They get takers each year.

Our DEP has access to three choppers with some very sophisticated IR
and low light hardware. They set up motion sensors in restricted
areas (like my woods) to catch poachers. Once the sensors trigger,
it's relayed by satellite to Hartford and they dispatch a chopper.

Caught thirty last year (two in my woods).

Occasionally, but most of the time, at least around here, it's deer
jackers.

Later,

Tom
