Seeing animals interacting in their natural environment is not an everyday occurrence. However, with live camera feeds set up in wild habitats, the public can view animals as they go about their lives. Several wildlife reservations and national parks have set cameras up for viewing on their websites. These act as a helpful resource for those involved with studying animal behavior and also hunters who want to view how deer behave when no one is around.
Instructions
1. Go to the Dakota-Wild website and click on the "Live Cams" option (see Resources). Click on the "login" option. To create an account, click on the "Sign Up" option. Enter in all the required information and then click on the "Join" button at the bottom of the page. You then must sign up for a Trophy membership to be able to view the deer feeding cameras.
2. Go to the Real Dear Hunting Chat website for a live streaming video of deer (see Resources). Click the "Play" button to view the deer. You can also join the members on the website to chat about the streaming video.
3. Go to the Trinity Mountain Outdoors website for over 140 links to live animal cameras (see Resources). For cameras that are specifically for viewing deer, scroll down the list of website links to the "Animal Web Cams" heading.
4. Click on the "Deer Cam" link to go to the Smokey Bend Ranch website, which features a number of whitetail deer. Below the camera feed you'll see that the best times to see the deer are between 7 a.m. and 8 a.m., and between 6 p.m and 12 p.m.
5. Click on the "Deer Cam Photos" option to see several stills of the deer caught on the live camera. Some pictures even include captured times in which the deer were eating.
