These folks didn't realize (why on earth would they?) that the log was scented with probably a few dollars' worth of Calvin Klein Obsession. And they took it the second day the camera was out! So there was nothing to keep the animals in the frame. Got a couple of videos of nothing, so one can only imagine what passed by. They saw the camera, but politely left it alone though so that's good!
Also, as a fake scientist, I realize there is always something to be learned from all trailcam footage. Notice hiker #2 picking grass seeds out of his socks. After a chaparral fire, weedy grasses can invade if fires burn too hot or too frequently for the native plants to re-establish their seed banks. This is called "type conversion".
