Any of you Wisconsin guys signup for the Snapshot Wisconsin program. Never heard of it. It is a program that the DNR has that monitors all wildlife with trail cameras thru out the state to get better population estimates. You have to sign-up for program and if you get accepted into program, they give you a trail camera and accessories to use for a minimum of 1 year. In return you have to agree to check camera once every 3 months and download the photos to your account on Snapshot website. They are trying to get a good distribution of trail cameras thru out the whole state. I signed up and was accepted. Should be getting the trail camera shortly. |

Got my trailcam from DNR and deployed it today. What did you get? I signed up on the 5th and haven't heard anything back from them. Got a Bushnell, very similar to the Bushnell that I have. Had them send a bear/security box right away. If I remember right it took about a month before I heard from them after applying. They may have some one already in your block/area already. |

Just a little update on the Snapshot Wisconsin trailcam. The DNR is now giving credits for your driving time and time to check camera. If a person ever does a project like a pond these credits are applied to your cost share of project. In my case I get 4.5 hours in credits every time I check camera.

That's a cool program! What do they do with the data? Is it put to good use?
