Home on the Range #062: Moultrie Mobile Edge Pro Cellular Trail Camera

We’re beginning to dip into the colder months of the year around the US which inevitably means most people are calling it quits on hunting for the year, but not me. I keep my cellular trail cameras out all year long because a lot of important information can still be gathered. In the winter months, you can often better track the patterns and movements of whitetail deer because snow let’s you more easily – and visibly – see their tracks. Moreover, winter is an easier time to find bedding areas (melted snow), collect sheds from deer you weren’t able to fill a tag on, and simply keep an eye on the population of game animals still on your property (whitetail deer, wild hogs, coyotes, fox, etc). With all that being said, I added a new camera to my arsenal in the Moultrie Mobile Edge Pro cellular trail camera. This cellular trail camera is still compatible with the Moultrie Mobile app, but it gives you a bunch of new, desirable features that you may want. Let’s dive in and see what the Moultrie Mobile Edge Pro cellular trail camera is all about!
