      Exavion Johnson I know they look virtually the same, but the Florida black panther is genetically different from the cougar/puma/mountain lion of the rest of the country. Fortunately, though, they’re genetically similar enough to interbreed, or else they’d probably be extinct or near extinction by now. I can’t recall exactly when, but cougars were introduced to the Everglades in hopes that interbreeding would bring them back from the brink of extinction, and it’s been working. The number of Florida Panthers has been growing thanks to the cougar interbreeding program, and the construction of special “crossings” we’ve built into the roads that cross the Everglades. They are now mostly a product of the two species’ DNA, but still significantly different enough to be taxonomically different from the American cougar.

    So do these cameras just stick out in the environment visually, or is it a scent thing? Seems like animals always walk up to these trailcams and investigate them, but I thought most of them were as camouflaged as possible so I don't understand why animals notice them so often.

    • @Sienisota
      @Sienisota Рік тому +10

      Sturdy cameras, and trail cams like this, usually make a tiny sound when they start recording. Most humans don't even hear it, but some animals clearly do. I have seen some individual cats and dogs react to it quite negatively. I think wild animals react more strongly to any strange sound already, but since the sound isn't connected to anything they automatically know to be dangerous, they get curious.

      There also is a residual scent on the camera from the owner. Deer have an amazing sense of smell, some say 5000 times better than us. Pigs will walk up to a camera also. Yes, I have seen deer look right at a trail cam hundreds of times. Whether it's a faint sound the cameras make, the scent, the IR lens, or a combination animals definitely notice them.

    To answer a couple of reader questions, it has been observed that woodpeckers can hear electricity coursing through wires. They peck at the outside of a wooden shed believing it to be ants. And bears don't need to be fat in warm climate.
