Are trail cams a good investment for monitoring animals?

I'm looking for a good - actually helpful - gift for my husband, who is a farmer. We added sheep to the operation this year.
I've been wondering if a trail cam - or some other type of camera setup that can alert us - would be helpful, (1) ahead of lambing season and (2) generally to alert us if something is out of the ordinary (predators, etc.)
I'd greatly appreciate any input, experiences, recommendations, etc.!
