YAY!! you got a fox!! :) so cool!! Those bears were intent on taking down your other camera! lol!! We did get some good inside the mouth shots!! :) as always great videos Tim!
Hi Tim, LOVE seeing the inside of the bear's mouth as he/she tried to rip the camera off the tree! Our bears do that as well and I even have footage of a mother bear messing with my camera only to have her cub follow suit. I guess they're TAUGHT to attack trail cams at a young age! LOL The Florida panther is especially exciting. We don't have anything like that where we are but I do have fox videos in the daytime if you are curious. THANK YOU for the great wildlife footage. :-)
You should see if the trail cam company wants to buy your footage of the bear trying to eat the camera. I would say that is a great advertisement of the quality of the thing! LOL
Glad to see the cameras back out in the field. That one bear was sure wanting the camera. I bet he wanted it so he could relocate it for trail cam pictures of people visiting the local fast food place to show to his buddies. lol.
Hi Tim! I came across your videos for the first time a couple of months ago. When I saw an alligator walking along the same path people walked in one of the videos... It blew my mind. I live in the mountains of Pennsylvania and I've seen bears, fox and other critters seen in your videos, but an alligator... omg!! I was amazed!! I was hooked! My 3 year old granddaughter and I really enjoy watching your videos together.
Great videos Tim. Just a thought, maybe put the two cameras facing each other so we can watch the bear inspect/try to eat the other camera. Thanks!! Merry Christmas!
I’m really enjoying your videos. You are a very good editor and I like the way you introduce the videos and lead us up to what we are about to see. You are also very good at choosing camera locations. I really enjoy seeing all the animals acting naturally. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication. Bears are assholes.
TIm's videos are the reason I purchased two of those Browning Recon Force Cameras. Bears chewing on them, 221 degrees of heat during a prescribed burn, submerged under water for days, and hurricane Irma. And they still work.
Same here. I have plans to get one in the near future. These videos are not only fun and educational about wildlife, but they are great reviews for the camera. Thanks for sharing Tim!
Congratulations on your 1st (or 2nd if you include the one in your sister's backyard.)!! It is fascinating how the bears bite the cameras and are the only animal so inclined.
Love your videos, they are excellent. Based on your success with Browning I picked up one and gave it a try. They are hard to find here but I managed to get a 850 HD. Sadly it ate batteries (two full sets over three days on 54 videos). I use them for watching fox families on the property and whatever else goes by like coyotes, deer etc. I contacted Browning and was not pleased with the response. I was told their cameras are made by a sub contractor and I should try to contact the subcontractor manufacturer directly. Not impressed with that and the camera was returned. I am glad you have better luck with yours and your videos are wonderful to watch. Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year.
also if you place a trail cam after eating wash your hands really good or put on some gloves to avoid contaminating your trail cam with the smell of food. a bear's nose is really that good. Logger John.
What on earth do the bears seem to think about your cameras!? That first bear was pretty intent on getting it! Lol!! I wonder what the attraction is for them??
Hey Tim I see you have a lot of trouble with bears trying to eat your camera Try putting cayenne pepper in a spray bottle mixed with water and spray around camera after you mount it on the tree Works with dog s chewing
Black Bears also tend to be more docile than Grizzly's........Grizzly's are more defensive..... theres a show out of Canada called the Rick Mercer Report.....they have an episode where they were in a National Park in the winter and were able to approach a Black Bear den and take and tag the cubs in it with the mother there.... a Grizzly den you would not even want to try that if you value your life!
Bears have an amazing sense of smell and he definitely smelled the human scent on the camera that's why he was so curious about it. Also goes to show that they are not afraid of you even a tiny bit
Wish you had an automatic setting to shock or buzz those bears! LOL. Otherwise wear rubber gloves when handling cam or spray bleach or pepper spray around cam mount. Bears smell you or a scent and think food is inside or just natural curiosity what is there.
Wonder if the bear smells your scent on the camera, & thinks it's something it can eat?! Wonder if putting a little bit of bear repellent put on the camera would help stop the bears from trying to eat the camera?
Hello Tim，I really like your video about trail camera. I think this is very helpful for users. So I would like to know if you can help record such a video. Looking forward to more details and your reply.
Bears are curious and they like to destroy things but they are beautiful.great video I would not want to walk in there with these bears and big cats walking around.
The bear at 4:13 - I hope all those spots aren't ticks, if they are he's in trouble. The bear starting at 4:55, who really gives it a go at trying to eat your camera, also has a bunch of white spots on his fur too, but some of the spots appear to be on top of his fur, not down next to his skin, although some do appear to be ticks, as you'd expect, especially around the neck. The last bear at 7:03 also has a ton of them on his neck and back/upper arm. Poor guys, must be maddening along with the humidity and mosquitoes.
Karen Louks a lot of Floridas parks butt up against private land. Or the land was private, the state deemed it a park, and the land owner is grand fathered in to keep their rights to that land.
They've always come on but after being out there in the woods for weeks at a time and what I have to go through to get to them, it's always a good sight to see that they are still working.
I'm not trying to insult or compliment just making a simple statement. I wasn't implying that he reminded me of him because he is dead. I'm not sure what "irresposible" is :-) but, I'm not implying that he reminded me of him due to him being an irresponsible whack-job either. I don't know if it's his voice or what, but he reminds me of Timothy for whatever reason.
I saw the video of you messing with someone elses trail camera. You kept moving it back and forth like you were trying to steal it. Why would you do that? You lost my views, thief. You even said "better not mess with it. It might be working.
That's not true. I know who's camera that was. He had cameras at the waterhole when it got flooded just like I did. When the water when down I went there to put a camera back on the waterhole and I saw his camera, I thought it was the one that was there since the flood then I realized it was too clean to be the same camera. If you turn up the volume, you can hear me say I hope it's working.
@@ShrikeZone Then why were you twisting another person's camera? It appeared you were seeing if you could remove it, and once you found you couldn't steal it easily, you said "hope it's working. Better not mess with it". Yet you were messing with it. Thief!
Marie Miller It was one of his buddies cameras and he thought it was damaged by the flood and tried to take it out of there. He then realized it might have been set up after the flood and said "I hope it's working" because he did not want to leave the broken camera there. Reread his comment and slow down, stop being a dumbass.
@@hsjdndd6081 Hey dumbass. Did he have the key to unlock the camera from the tree? It looked like he was trying pretty hard to remove the camera. Don't be naive. When someone tests to see if your car's door is locked, they mean to steal the car or what they see in the car. Or does Tim Harrell just go around checking everyone's door to make sure they are locked. He was trying to steal the camera. Tim Harrell is a thief.
Interesting how that big Bruin smelled the Mountain Lion urine and immediately scans upward to the trees... smart Bear! Awesome video captures Tim!!!

I'm a fan from California. Love you videos of the wild life. I'll be watching...keep up the great work.
💕🐻💞🐻❤️😻🐾great video love them all... thanks so much for sharing
This is addicting lol I love watching, so relaxing

As soon as I hear you, I smile, Tim.
Awesome footage as always Tim!
Thanks for another awesome video
Usually you don't see the inside of a bear mouth until it's too late
Really enjoyed the video. Nice closeups of the bear. LOL. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing and have a Merry Christmas......I love these videos
PS loved the hawk as well. Tim do you know exactly what type of hawk that was? Just curious. It was so pretty.
Ashley - I believe that was a red shouldered hawk.
Great video footage Tim. All I'm getting are deer, coyotes, and assorted neighborhood house cats.

Aren't you afraid the mountain lion attack you in that area? Very good and very clear videos, I enjoy watching them, thank you
I think you need to spray some bear off on the tree. Lol! Great videos, I love watching and listening to the sounds.
The falcon was super cute. Thanks
I really do look forward to your recordings!
Watching that squirrel bury his food lol idk what it is but black bears love trail cameras
Love your videos!
That bear really wants that camera. Maybe that was a yogi bear.
I love watching your videos!!
We enjoy your videos. Even my two cats watch with us. 😸
What on earth do the bears seem to think about your cameras!? That first bear was pretty intent on getting it! Lol!! I wonder what the attraction is for them??
Smokey was hungry!
I love your vids. i wonder if the bear smells your scent on or around the camera
Bears have extremely good smell sense - better than the best dogs.
Boy those bears sure like your cameras.
Good video .I never knew there were so many Bears in Florida.
Your videos are awesome . I know its not an easy job and you do it well..
Fox yeah I get them every week or so in Michigan! Great video!
That was a great video. Fun to see what's out there.
Loved that close up bear footage.
Goodness that bear that was rubbing all over the camera had a ton of ticks in his body!
Hey Tim I see you have a lot of trouble with bears trying to eat your camera
Try putting cayenne pepper in a spray bottle mixed with water and spray around camera after you mount it on the tree
Works with dog s chewing
Nah, just place a few moth balls around the base of the camera.
this was awesome. thanks for sharing
Wa there peanut butter on your camera? :)
Great video and Merry Christmas
This video was very riveting for my cat. I enjoyed it too.
I think Netflix must buy your videos
Those bears are out all times of the day, aren’t you scared you will meet one in the thickets?😳
I've met a few in person. They have always behaved themselves.
Black Bears also tend to be more docile than Grizzly's........Grizzly's are more defensive.....
theres a show out of Canada called the Rick Mercer Report.....they have an episode where they were in a National Park
in the winter and were able to approach a Black Bear den and take and tag the cubs in it with the mother there....
a Grizzly den you would not even want to try that if you value your life!
No waders or boots?
Do you monetize your RUclips videos?
Nah. I don't want you guys to have to put up with the commercials.
@@ShrikeZone u could advertise Browning outdoor cams..i guess no one would pussy up on those...
Have you tried putting some deer corn?
Amazing how the animals know the camera is there!
Bears have an amazing sense of smell and he definitely smelled the human scent on the camera that's why he was so curious about it. Also goes to show that they are not afraid of you even a tiny bit
In all of your videos, I've never seen you encounter a diamondback. And you sure don't seem to be
afraid of them. I' m wondering why.
I've only seen a couple rattlesnakes while out in the swamps. I see quite a few water moccasins.
@@ShrikeZone Tim, please be careful!
@@ShrikeZone what about copperheads?
That bear hates that camera!
❤️

Hello Tim，I really like your video about trail camera. I think this is very helpful for users. So I would like to know if you can help record such a video. Looking forward to more details and your reply.
I'll help in any way I can. The secret is to just put a camera out in the woods and see what you get.
Thanks so much，I have a similar camera, Could I give it to you for free, you can use it to shoot videos , I Would like to repost your post.
I think the bear smells your scent on the camera
Yes, most definitely.
This bear(s) are crazy persistent!
I think that bear needs a dentist
tim, have you ever had a cam stolen?
Joe Mama i don't think so, but he has had people try to steal them.
Tim, What is the worst to you raccoons or squirrels?
They both use up a lot of my camera batteries. :)
That was your warning now go buy or build a metal enclosure for those cameras, so you dont lose them.
agree. he got lucky. usually the bears are pretty determined to get them off the trees.
Is it possible to neutralize ur scent on the cameras? I really appreciate ur footage & have posted a connection on my Facebook.
They have a spray that is supposed to mask your scent but I don't mind when the bears get close for a whiff. :)
Bears are curious and they like to destroy things but they are beautiful.great video I would not want to walk in there with these bears and big cats walking around.
they tend to be more afraid of you than you are of them! and thus they will most of the time avoid you lest you spook or corner them!
Cool Video
Swampy drink spot was great to see the bear stay still for a drink
Wow I feel bad for that one bear it had so many ticks on it full of blood it look like it rubbed up against some sort of Burdock bush
What is it about your camera that they want to eat them
Human scent.
The bear at 4:13 - I hope all those spots aren't ticks, if they are he's in trouble. The bear starting at 4:55, who really gives it a go at trying to eat your camera, also has a bunch of white spots on his fur too, but some of the spots appear to be on top of his fur, not down next to his skin, although some do appear to be ticks, as you'd expect, especially around the neck. The last bear at 7:03 also has a ton of them on his neck and back/upper arm. Poor guys, must be maddening along with the humidity and mosquitoes.
Those white spots are caesar weed burrs.
@@ShrikeZone Thanks much for answering my question. I was concerned for the poor guys.
The bears don`t like the paparazzi taking their pictures.
Have you ever had a camera burned?
I never have. I usually put my cameras in more swampy areas that are safe from the burning.
saw a huge bear terd on sawyer near the iron ranger
Why would there be wire fence in a park
Karen Louks a lot of Floridas parks butt up against private land. Or the land was private, the state deemed it a park, and the land owner is grand fathered in to keep their rights to that land.
The fox!!
Goofy bears! Lol!
don't carry your trail cam in anything that you have carried food in. bears have the best noses out there!
Logger John
Nice videos-need to buy yourself some rubber boots
You always act surprised that the camera comes on does it have a propensity to not come on?????
They've always come on but after being out there in the woods for weeks at a time and what I have to go through to get to them, it's always a good sight to see that they are still working.
Tim Harrell it makes sense 😊
Do bears get ticks on them to ?
They do.
Camera "bearly" held on.....
@ 2:57 hey your breath stinks ! 🤣😂😅😄
Great videos. You remind me of Timothy Treadwell.
that's more of an insult actually. one, he's dead, and two, he was an irresposible whack-job who got his girlfriend killed.
I'm not trying to insult or compliment just making a simple statement. I wasn't implying that he reminded me of him because he is dead.

My what big teeth you have! 2:55
black bear or grizzly?? dont think thats grizz proof
black bear no massive shoulder hump on its back......plus Grizzly's tend to be more in the western US
Am I the only one who thinks those bears should try to behave themselves? So annoying... Incredible images in the second video, by the way!
We named that bear Chompers. Ha!
Or "orca breath"
Holy cow! Uhh, holy bear it's not edible !!!
What is it with you playing in bear crap? Do it with the camera off, not all of us want to see that! Other than that, I love your videos.
I wish I could hunt there
Bears....are jerks. Biggest jerks in the animal kingdom.
I think you're forgetting about cats.
@@sandpiperr haha, yes. Cat knocks stuff off of tables. Bear knock table off of porch...they both laugh
wtf is a 'Browning bear" ?
Browning is the name of the camera manufacturer, not the bear.
