The hanging jug. Part 1


Here's a new video showing how some of our common mammals reacted to an empty plastic detergent jug suspended over a game trail near our house. 

I had a couple of reasons for doing this. One reason was to see if a harmless jug  interested the critters as much as my trail cameras. I really don't think it did, except that the jug was suspended. This imbued it with movement, depending on the breeze and how the animals treated it. Have a look.
