Okay, maybe can't be answered.
So anyone had a cam to last more than 5 years. (that's how long Dutch's has lasted)

I only ever owned two and the first one was a Browning that I didn't use much and it was a hunk of junk. Other than that I don't know how long they should last. I would get a bear box just to be safe. They are excellent climbers.

do you like your trail camera?
If so, get the bear box.

I've never had a trail camera last 5 years.The average is probably 2 years but that's just me.I don't have a huge problem with bears but I have lost a couple of them to bears and both times,they were destroyed within a few hours of me putting them out.I would think they would be less detectable 6 or 7 feet off the ground but a bear box is always a good idea.

Good advice Doug.
I'm going to mount my cameras higher this year.
Have not lost a camera to bears since using boxes. Have had minor scratches and such, but nothng destroyed.
Before using boxes, I had cams destroyed.
