Most animals find food based on their own natural instinct, and some are more curious then others. For example the bear, the raccoon, and the possum were interested in the Mountain because they are omnivores. The deer how ever, they usually only eat what they typically find in their environment.
Wash all your clothes with only baking soda in the washer, no fabric softener or dryer sheets, etc..... you won’t leave as much scent for the deer to shy away...
id be pretty skeptical too if i found a big gulp and mcdonald’s meal in the middle of the street where i live with my favorite order. i’d think to myself. “nah man. too good to be true. miss me with that bait.”
@@CharlieDexter99 Yet on the other hand, if the deer would not be this cautious they would be eaten by predators too often and would probably go instinct.
@@nikokapanen82 good point. I agree. Having said that, where the majority of whitetail deer populate, they really have no natural predators that pose any significant threat, humans excluded. While bear, mountain lions and wolves ranges will overlap with white tails in some states, most states don’t have bear and wolves. Coyotes really won’t target a full grown deer, bobcats either. But yea. You are right. It’s a survival instinct. Just cracks me up how nervous they always are.
Opossum do serve a very important purpose in helping animals...they each eat about 5,000 ticks every season! They even eat snails, slugs and small rodents and have been misunderstood to be a nuisance animal, but actually they are quite beneficial to our environment.
Thank you have fed a MoMA possum for a few yrs. She's built in pest control!! And shes very interesting. And my grandaugther. Very careful watches her from the porch.
I like possums because they are basically like little garbage disposals of the woods and apparently are pretty resistant to rabies (a problem here). They are apparently quite stupid and slow to think and act.
@@marzcapone9939 in my area of the country, raccoons and skunks are the main animals found with rabies. I don't recall ever hearing of a possum in our area having rabies.
Opossums are not nasty! They're actually very clean and cat-like...they just get a bad rep because they're not fuzzy and pretty. I love trail cam videos! I want to do this just to see what is around us.
I agree. You might have touched the camera after touching the peanuts and the bear was looking for more peanuts. I'd suggest cleaning your scent off the camera then wearing latex gloves when prepping the food and camera.

Possums are the sweetest little things ever! So cute I love them so much. Definitely not nasty they are beautiful and do so much good. Many people have them as pets. They’re just little balls of love. ❤❤❤❤
They're ugly. Also, they mentioned them on _The Big Bang Theory._ Stuart, the comic book shop owner, said his mother used to call him "her little possum." Someone asked him, "Are they cute?" He replied, "Not in the least."

I actually made friends with a momma possum and a murder of crows, this way but i had bird seed, in the mix as well. They visit me periodically now and the crows bring me gifts. The best part is when the crows follow my car, when I leave. The crows are so fun to hang out with, I swear they talk back, during conversations.
@@lordvader6172 - Because since I learned how defenceless they really are, I feel protective of them. Opossums have enough problems already without humans actively attacking them and spreading misinformation JUST because they don’t look pretty.
Unfortunately people are dicks and constantly running them over and I know it's on purpose at times cause I've had many of them run out to the road and I avoided hitting them . Great animals .
Possums are actually very helpful, they eat 90 percent of the ticks they find, they eat cockroaches, rats, mice and clean up carrion. They are also resistant to snake venom which is one reason we have antivenom, they also eat snakes. They are also helpful to gardeners by eating slugs, snails and cleaning up spoiled fruit and berries. They are a very clean animal. Mainly out at night, so you shouldn't run into one.
We don't have them in my country. All I could think about seeing those peanut butter on the ground are the ants that would be swarming on it if it was in my country.
Yep & It’s amazing to me how many people don’t even know or care what hydrogenated oil is! & they regularly consume it with no thought at all! Trans fat is literally like putting styrofoam in you’re veins. I hope they get banned soon enough.
@@cognitivedisability9864 True for mammals, not for birds. Birds, except for condors, I think, don't really have a sense of smell. But you still shouldn't touch eggs, because the adults are likely nearby, and 1) you are stressing them out and 2) the longer you mess around there, the longer the eggs go without heat.
@@coyotelong4349 Cow’s milk is actually awful for animals. We’re actually the only mammals that drink milk after nursing. (From animals besides humans, of course) Even then, you can tell we’ve still not fully adapted to it, as many people are still lactose intolerant.
Peter Pan peanut butter contains a large amount of sugar and oil. I would try something like Crazy Richard's Peanut Butter next time, the only ingredients are peanuts. It's very affordable also. Walmart sells it. As someone who eats only pure nut butters without additves, Peter Pan peanut butter, and other ones like that, have a very chemical taste and odor to them that is different from a no additive nut butter. That may have been why they didn't like it. If you have something like a Vitamix you can buy bags of cheaper raw, no additve sunflower seeds at Trader Joe's and blend them in the Vitamix and make your own seed butter. They may like that more. Try a little bit and see how they respond. :)
ive maintained generations of possums, i leave them kitchen scraps and cat food to promote them to come back. As a direct result they've taken care of my garden and large compost area by eating all the slugs, snails rats and mice. Overall, id much prefer to have them around.
they are super sweet. I befriended a baby possum i found snooping around for scraps and sleeping in the top of the chicken coup under the tarp covr. I would hand feed him from inside the tarp giving him melon bites etc through the hexagonal holes in the chicken wire lol he was very gentile and let me pet his belly
@@black_forest_ Thanks for the education lesson! I thought opossum was the correct spelling for the N. American “possum”. Now I know that they are both marsupials but not the same animal! The opossum may be ugly but I feel better knowing they are in my neighborhood eating the ticks in my yard!
Ace: Leaves 5 pounds of peanut butter and jelly in the middle of the woods and only gets like 4 animals to eat it. Me: Accidentally drops a bread crumb in my back yard and gets every insect possible to start a revolutionary war.
It looks like he might live where rich people are where their property is almost pesticide free. And or it's in the fall/winter where for example the ants are deep underground during this time.
I’ve tracked bears for years. The deer and the bear smelled you in the area and the bear wanted to smell the camera and they LOVE plastic. It’s like chewing gum for them.
@@clownfromclowntown I enjoy watching them and how they behave. They have old men’s eyes like your elderly grandfather with no harm or malice. For example I has a set of twin adolescent males who were feeding at a grain pile. I watched them feast like Roman kings laying in their backs scooping up oats and pouring them into their mouths (bears love oats) and when one fell asleep on his back the other (also on his back still) looked side to side and then quickly slapped his sleeping brother across the face with the back of his paw, then suddenly pretend to be asleep as his brother sat up quickly wondering “what the heck” man I saw how my brother and I used to behave. I have lots of bear stories. That’s why I like tracking bears
“Possums are just nasty” Uh, excuse you! They don’t drink, they don’t party, they don’t sleep around, and they eat 5000 ticks per season. I call that moral purity right there
They do kill off native trees and birds here in New Zealand though so I would say they are. Just finished the video and saw it was a different type of possum.
When my oldest son was a kid he got mad at me about something one night and stomped off out the backdoor to pout. I could hear him outside mouthing off to himself. A few minutes later there was a scream and he came running back in. "I was petting a cat but the cat had a naked tail. I think it was a giant rat." I took a flashlight out and looked. There were the neighborhood cats and one very fat possum. I laughed so hard about that. I've been fond of those little guys ever since.
Just as funny was my friends teenage daughter yacking all night on the phone while sitting on their deck. Her parents were inside doing whatever parents do when they heard her scream. She came bursting in crying, saying she reached down to pet their cat but their cat was not enormous OR fluffy. It was a giant raccoon that had come up to eat leftover catfood.
Maybe use organic peanut butter ( peanuts, salt, oil ) instead of peanut butter with additives and preservatives that can severely damage the health of the animals eating it!
@@js70371 Millions of tonnes of food is wasted every single day, who cares about some guy feeding a couple jars of peanutbutter to raccoons? Your average person wastes twice that amount of food every week.

The deer's hesitation was probably due to detecting the scent of the fingers of the human who spread the stuff. The bear, on the other hand, was gonna eat whatever was there: peanuts; peanut butter; human fingers...
All those animals can smell his scent on everything (particularly his trail cameras, which is why all the animals are so interested in it) which is why they, the deer in particular, are so cautious.
This is like the forest animal equivalent of "Dude, I stumbled across this hole in the wall restaurant and the food was SO good but I can't for the life of me remember where it was or what it was called."
I vividly remember the first time I tried peanut butter: age 6 at school when my friend gave me a sandwich. Had it again on two other occasions at people’s houses. My mam never bought it until I was about 12.
Possums are nearly blind. And there is nothing nasty about them, aside from how some of the males smell. They are gentle, docile, don't bite even if you pick them up, just open their mouths and show their teeth when scared. They are very sweet.
@@trulyinfamous I rescued one in my back yard that had one side almost gone, like a huge dog had taken a bite. It was walking around, I got a towel and threw it over the poor thing and brought it inside, called the possum rescue lady in town who came to get him. His entire side/back was gone.
Opossums are very good for our environment . They’re like a trash collector. Never heard of them killing chickens before. We had quite a few chickens but also had opossums, but never had that problem . Wow! 😱
My daughter has a rescue possum, its clean and been a cherished pet for 3 years. Loves my daughter like a mother. She did get it when it barely had hair, the mama and others died, hit by a vehicle. It was the only survivor.
@Music Releases I hate roaches and so the enemy of my enemy is my friend. A lot of people will purposely swirve into them on the road. Maybe cuz they're aholes or they're cruel. I don't go out my way to kill them and I've actually had to get one out of my trash bin after it had fallen in and couldn't get back out.
@Music Releases but being negative about them spreads misinformation. In this modern day and age where everyone's first thought is eradication and it's so easy to do so, we need to be careful. Nasty turns to "kill them" really fast. People are vicious.
@Music Releases but that misses the point that we have to be careful how we demonize or vilify things. Especially on platforms that influence millions every day. If you protray something in a bad light, people are very quick to form an opinion and then those opinions lead to very bad places because people do some vicious things.
Maybe you are leaving some of your own scent or the food scents or a combination of the two on the trail cam? I was wondering if maybe you tried to clean it off really well with alcohol if that might remove all the odor? I'm pretty sure that is why the animals are messing with the camera. If it had no smell whatsoever they most likely wouldn't even mess with it. Awesome video! Very good idea for some creative content that I really enjoyed watching! I just became a new subscriber because of this video!
My uncle has trail cams all over his rural property which is surrounded by farmland. Most closely, there's a corn field just beyond his backyard property line. He and the farmers use trail cams and share footage, they look out for each other as you do out there. He's gotten some amazing footage but the funniest was when a black bear was walking through the field on his back legs and carrying a huge bunch of corn he'd harvested 😂
Just to clarify something you said…possums are not nasty. They are actually anything but. They have quite an important role in nature. They do not transmit diseases like rabies, they eat many things that we should be thankful for…like ticks. They are completely unaggressive towards humans. Those teeth are all for show.
I was thinking the same🤣. There's probably only a total of 10%peanuts and berries in the whole thing.. the rest is sugar, additives and colours. The bear was sensible to pick off the nuts😁
My neighbor is a dnr officer. He says there is something about the smell of the plastic. Same reason squirrels eat the insulating plastic from wiring. Plus the human scent and its something different. They are curious. There is a documentary about black bears and one of the camera guys wore a citronella spray and thr cubs crawled all over him due to the smell. They just loved it. I wish I could remember the name of it. It was about how a couple were trying to reintroduce orphaned cubs back into nature. My son was young so probably 20 years ago.
The opossum was carefully reading the ground, discerning what other animals had been there and how long ago they had left. Then he knew he was safe enough to dine on the scrumptious treats. 😆
My family used to feed wildcats and raccoons that would come to our porch every night. We moved out of that house years ago but I still remember some hilarious moments while feeding them. 😂
Opossums are amazing creatures! They’re not nasty. They’re pretty innocuous, plus they eat mosquitoes, ticks and even venomous snakes. They are virtually immune to rabies and are fantastic creatures to have around. They have a bad reputation, but are pretty harmless and very helpful!
Thank you for this comment Lizzy. There is way too much stigma around opossums. I hate how most people automatically hate and want to destroy something that doesn't suit them as "beautiful or pleasing to the eyes". If people take the time to look beauty and appreciation can be found on this animal. Sadly the opossum in the video knows all too well that he is the most targeted creature . So I'm sure he loved the food but was too nervous to hang around in one place too long.
Yes sir. I have. But we are all entitled to our opinion. My opinion is people hate opossums for petty reasons. And I know you have your own opinions as well. However I stand by my opinion.
Using scentnkiller with the idea of being "olfactorily invisible"(my word) and think of it as a dillutant. It knocks the human scent down to a level where the deer consider your trail not fresh and knowing you're not there, will approach less cautious. you CANNOT hide from a deers nose, but you can fool it with as little scent as possible.
Not sure about the sent thing. I cam put corn down and it's gone in the morning. And I leave my sent all over . if I leave the corn in a pile they don't touch it . they eat all the corn I scatter around . 🤔
I love all the comments defending opossums!!! They’re very good for the other animals and the environment. They’re very silly too, since they’re nearly blind.
You're entirely guessing that there is any odor to chemical additives, and you're also assuming there are no chemical additives or preservatives on the peanuts.
@@abesapien9930 did you check out the container of peanut butter? Costco triple size. I don’t think he bought a pound of organic additive free peanut butter for the bears.
Possums eat heaps of ticks so they are actually good to have around. They are also adorable and not aggressive. If they feel threatened, they sort just flop over and play dead. Pretty cute.
All true. We have an alert dog (yapper) and a guard dog (53 kilos) inside our property walls, and an outdoor guard dog (30 kilos, and ferocious) outside our property walls. The outdoor dog got in a fight with coyotes last night, he ate them up. A week ago, he encountered an opossum. He would pick it up, shake it, throw it, then do it again, and again. I saw it on the cameras, so I ran out to the gate and went out. I got in between the dog and the possum, who was literally playing dead. Finally the dog understood my words, "NO, SPOT! NO!" (the dog's name in English is Spot. The Spanish equivalent is "Pinto," which is what all of our Spanish speaking family calls him.) He finally did understand that opossums are off-limits. They're endangered here in Mexico, too. So we spare them, though they create havoc on our gardens.

Were the peanuts salted?
Maybe it was the salt that the bear was after?
The Trail camera has your scent on it, that's why so many animals were curious to see what it is.
Most animals find food based on their own natural instinct, and some are more curious then others. For example the bear, the raccoon, and the possum were interested in the Mountain because they are omnivores. The deer how ever, they usually only eat what they typically find in their environment.

@@lordvader6172 - Because since I learned how defenceless they really are, I feel protective of them. Opossums have enough problems already without humans actively attacking them and spreading misinformation JUST because they don’t look pretty.
@@spacewolfcub Fair enough.
They're really good at taking care of the tick population, snakes, bugs, even mice. They're good to have around actually.
@@lordvader6172 even the bad guy gets it
I love possums, they are such great mothers and so fantastic for clearing ticks out of the area and I hate ticks.
How they clear ticks ?
@@albusai They eat them.
Unfortunately people are dicks and constantly running them over and I know it's on purpose at times cause I've had many of them run out to the road and I avoided hitting them .
Great animals .
@Native Nfree Give me an opossum anyway!
@@zabercrombie24 sometimes its better to hit a possum than cause a car accident
Possums are actually very helpful, they eat 90 percent of the ticks they find, they eat cockroaches, rats, mice and clean up carrion. They are also resistant to snake venom which is one reason we have antivenom, they also eat snakes. They are also helpful to gardeners by eating slugs, snails and cleaning up spoiled fruit and berries. They are a very clean animal. Mainly out at night, so you shouldn't run into one.
Something useful can also be nasty... Like a trash can...
I love possums, got one under my shed.
The possum council has taken notice of your praise, you’ve been promoted
Woah. How big of a role those critters play in the ecosystem!
We don't have them in my country. All I could think about seeing those peanut butter on the ground are the ants that would be swarming on it if it was in my country.
Awww no, opossums are sweet as pie. I pick up wild ones all the time. 😊
Are possums from here 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 but o'possums from Ireland? 🇮🇪
Smart bear. Knows the difference between real food and hydrogenated oils 😂
They are very smart animals bears that have the same iq of some primates
Don't get Skippy in my country - can't believe it's only 90% peanuts, and the rest is salt/oil/sugar - disgusting stuff.
If you grown up in the wood without anyone tells you the existence of eatable peanut butter ........
Yep & It’s amazing to me how many people don’t even know or care what hydrogenated oil is! & they regularly consume it with no thought at all! Trans fat is literally like putting styrofoam in you’re veins. I hope they get banned soon enough.
@@Tweezy786 Are you in the US becuase here, trans fats are banned. They have been since the FDA banned them 7 years ago.

@Bob Holgate lol, anyway ive heard if you touch bird eggs. The parents might ditch it because they can smell it long after
@@cognitivedisability9864 True for mammals, not for birds. Birds, except for condors, I think, don't really have a sense of smell. But you still shouldn't touch eggs, because the adults are likely nearby, and 1) you are stressing them out and 2) the longer you mess around there, the longer the eggs go without heat.
I can't imagine how incredibly thirsty they were after eating the peanut butter
He should have left a gallon of milk for them
lol I think milk would make them constipated. Water would be a better choice.
@@coyotelong4349 Cow’s milk is actually awful for animals. We’re actually the only mammals that drink milk after nursing. (From animals besides humans, of course) Even then, you can tell we’ve still not fully adapted to it, as many people are still lactose intolerant.
@@pepearown4968 Dogs will nurse off cows given the chance.
Not constipation, the Hershey squirts.
Peter Pan peanut butter contains a large amount of sugar and oil. I would try something like Crazy Richard's Peanut Butter next time, the only ingredients are peanuts. It's very affordable also. Walmart sells it. As someone who eats only pure nut butters without additves, Peter Pan peanut butter, and other ones like that, have a very chemical taste and odor to them that is different from a no additive nut butter. That may have been why they didn't like it. If you have something like a Vitamix you can buy bags of cheaper raw, no additve sunflower seeds at Trader Joe's and blend them in the Vitamix and make your own seed butter. They may like that more. Try a little bit and see how they respond. :)

Always be kind to Opossums. They only live 1-2 years in the wild, 3 years max. They have a short life, they deserve some love. ❤
ive maintained generations of possums, i leave them kitchen scraps and cat food to promote them to come back.
As a direct result they've taken care of my garden and large compost area by eating all the slugs, snails rats and mice.
Overall, id much prefer to have them around.
They eat ticks and don't catch rabies. That's a plus in my book.
they are super sweet. I befriended a baby possum i found snooping around for scraps and sleeping in the top of the chicken coup under the tarp covr. I would hand feed him from inside the tarp giving him melon bites etc through the hexagonal holes in the chicken wire lol he was very gentile and let me pet his belly
Always be kind to animals, unless they are pure carnivores.
@@black_forest_ Thanks for the education lesson! I thought opossum was the correct spelling for the N. American “possum”. Now I know that they are both marsupials but not the same animal! The opossum may be ugly but I feel better knowing they are in my neighborhood eating the ticks in my yard!

I’ve tracked bears for years. The deer and the bear smelled you in the area and the bear wanted to smell the camera and they LOVE plastic. It’s like chewing gum for them.
I've heard certain batteries smell sweet too.
On top of that, if you turned the cam on after setting the peanut butter bait, you most likely left the scent on the camera.
I’m not familiar with anything about hunting or tracking, so I don’t mean this in any way other than curiosity, but why do you track bears?
@@clownfromclowntown - He wants to be the next Tormund?
@@clownfromclowntown I enjoy watching them and how they behave. They have old men’s eyes like your elderly grandfather with no harm or malice.
For example I has a set of twin adolescent males who were feeding at a grain pile. I watched them feast like Roman kings laying in their backs scooping up oats and pouring them into their mouths (bears love oats) and when one fell asleep on his back the other (also on his back still) looked side to side and then quickly slapped his sleeping brother across the face with the back of his paw, then suddenly pretend to be asleep as his brother sat up quickly wondering “what the heck” man I saw how my brother and I used to behave. I have lots of bear stories. That’s why I like tracking bears
“Possums are just nasty”
Uh, excuse you! They don’t drink, they don’t party, they don’t sleep around, and they eat 5000 ticks per season. I call that moral purity right there
They do kill off native trees and birds here in New Zealand though so I would say they are. Just finished the video and saw it was a different type of possum.

When my oldest son was a kid he got mad at me about something one night and stomped off out the backdoor to pout. I could hear him outside mouthing off to himself. A few minutes later there was a scream and he came running back in. "I was petting a cat but the cat had a naked tail. I think it was a giant rat." I took a flashlight out and looked. There were the neighborhood cats and one very fat possum. I laughed so hard about that. I've been fond of those little guys ever since.
This has tickled me!! 🤣🤣🤣 thank you for sharing.
Just as funny was my friends teenage daughter yacking all night on the phone while sitting on their deck. Her parents were inside doing whatever parents do when they heard her scream. She came bursting in crying, saying she reached down to pet their cat but their cat was not enormous OR fluffy.
It was a giant raccoon that had come up to eat leftover catfood.

All those animals can smell his scent on everything (particularly his trail cameras, which is why all the animals are so interested in it) which is why they, the deer in particular, are so cautious.
I think they smelled peanuts on the trail camera
Wonder if wiping down the cameras with Clorox (or some other cleaner) would help?

Possums are nearly blind. And there is nothing nasty about them, aside from how some of the males smell. They are gentle, docile, don't bite even if you pick them up, just open their mouths and show their teeth when scared. They are very sweet.

@Music Releases I hate roaches and so the enemy of my enemy is my friend. A lot of people will purposely swirve into them on the road. Maybe cuz they're aholes or they're cruel. I don't go out my way to kill them and I've actually had to get one out of my trash bin after it had fallen in and couldn't get back out.
@Music Releases but being negative about them spreads misinformation. In this modern day and age where everyone's first thought is eradication and it's so easy to do so, we need to be careful. Nasty turns to "kill them" really fast. People are vicious.
@Music Releases but that misses the point that we have to be careful how we demonize or vilify things. Especially on platforms that influence millions every day. If you protray something in a bad light, people are very quick to form an opinion and then those opinions lead to very bad places because people do some vicious things.

Ahhh
Start using a scent killer. That will keep animals from messing with the trail cam. Deer can smell a human miles away
Agreed.
Using scentnkiller with the idea of being "olfactorily invisible"(my word) and think of it as a dillutant. It knocks the human scent down to a level where the deer consider your trail not fresh and knowing you're not there, will approach less cautious.
you CANNOT hide from a deers nose, but you can fool it with as little scent as possible.

Possums eat heaps of ticks so they are actually good to have around. They are also adorable and not aggressive. If they feel threatened, they sort just flop over and play dead. Pretty cute.
All true. We have an alert dog (yapper) and a guard dog (53 kilos) inside our property walls, and an outdoor guard dog (30 kilos, and ferocious) outside our property walls. The outdoor dog got in a fight with coyotes last night, he ate them up. A week ago, he encountered an opossum. He would pick it up, shake it, throw it, then do it again, and again. I saw it on the cameras, so I ran out to the gate and went out. I got in between the dog and the possum, who was literally playing dead. Finally the dog understood my words, "NO, SPOT! NO!" (the dog's name in English is Spot. The Spanish equivalent is "Pinto," which is what all of our Spanish speaking family calls him.) He finally did understand that opossums are off-limits. They're endangered here in Mexico, too. So we spare them, though they create havoc on our gardens.
A possum got like all of our baby chickens lmao
@XXVThat’s a shame. I really liked your comment until that stupid edit.
They don’t play dead it’s an involuntary reaction when they get scared.
