"For more
than 20 years I have been studying tigers at Royal Chitwan National Park in Nepal.
Recently I purchased one of your Trail Master TM 1500 units and the camera, in order to
take identification photos of tigers. The second night I pu t it out by a road and got an
excellent photo of a tigress. Then I decided to put it up by a trail that runs along the
crest of a ridge. I set it up about two yards off the path. At 0902 one morning a male
tiger walked through the beam and activated the u nit. The almost inaudible ‘click’made
by the camera got his attention. He attacked, knocking over the tripod. Seizing the camera
in his mouth he carried it 80 yards down the trail before dropping it. One of the tiger’s
canines penetrated the body of the camera, leaving a sizable hole just at the spot where
the film winds on. I dismissed the possibility that the photo would come out, but against
all odds, it did. I enclose a copy. Amazingly, the camera still works. . ." |
