I agree with Sunil. I would call the TP&W and find out who the local game warden is. Meet with them, tell him what is going on, give them a key to the gate if it's locked and be prepared to prosecute the trespassers if they are caught. No sense in getting the law involved if there are no consequences.

Move the camera, make sure it uses a black flash so it isn't visible to humans at night AND put a locking bear box on it. Maybe put another black flash camera way high in a tree looking at the one that they can access, and have it set so their face is visible on the camera.

I've had a camera stolen that was in a locked box, attached to the tree with a 3/8" Python cable lock. It caught someone going down the driveway that didn't want to be ID'd is my guess. They cut the cable and took the whole mess. Now with the cellular camera options, stealing the card or deleting pictures won't do them much good if the pictures are already sent to your phone or computer.
