Is there a game camera that can immediately alert me when it sees something?
I want to monitor the forest behind my house for intruders, predators, and game. Mainly I'm interested in being immediately informed (by getting an alert and a picture on my smartphone) when there is something moving in the woods. Are there any game or security cameras that can do this?
Most of the locations I would like to monitor are several hundred yards away from the house.
Also, the only cell carrier that works here is Verizon (if that makes any difference).

There is an outdoor camera(Arlo Go) made specifically for Verizon network(This is not a trail camera). It uses the 4G LTZ network and will work with a solar panel, so running power would not be an issue. This camera and plan also come with Free cloud storage.
This Camera works great but I am not sure as to if it will send you notifications that detect movement.

There are game cameras that can send an mms or use gprs to email the picture/video, see for instance this manual for one example.
Another option might be wifi cameras and repeater(s) to extend the range or use directional wifi antennas on the cameras, but I feel this is more dependent on the terrain between where you wish to have the camera and the resulting image.
