To capture pictures and videos of animals in their natural habitat, photographers often set up camera traps (also known as trail cameras). This ensures great pictures of wildlife and that too remotely. Jeff Wirth also set up similar equipment to take photos of bobcats. When he was looking at them later, though, he found a hilarious surprise.
A stranger had spotted his camera and decided to strike funny poses on the log. Jeff shared the finds on twitter, take a look.

Later, he found out that the man in question was Ben Sizemore.
People loved Ben’s sense of humour and thanked him for spreading some cheer. A few also noted that usually such cameras get stolen if spotted by people.
Many people would have stolen it!

Omg! I love this! Next time I see a camera I’m going to have to copy him! Love people that respect science 🙂

What a refreshing thing to see in all the doom and gloom that has been the year 2020.
