Predator Decoys

The purpose of a predator decoy is to attract other predator animals, including coyotes and bobcats, or to deter annoying animals, such as geese and deer. Predator decoys that draw in the animal that you’re hunting can resemble that animal, or look like something your game would like to eat, such as a rabbit. A life-size coyote that stakes into the ground is the ultimate predator decoy; it serves the dual purpose of enticing prey and deterring a pest. When set near your hunting spread, the decoy will draw in another coyote in for a little not-so-friendly competition. Staked in your lawn or garden, the realistic coyote makes a great predator decoy for invasive geese and deer. A quiver decoy is simply a piece of fur mounted on a heavy base or a stake that moves erratically to lure in prey. Quiver decoys are highly effective at luring in coyotes thanks to rapid motions they can’t resist. The ultimate predator decoy offers life-like features, details, and movements that can entice or deter. Achieve your goals with the best predator decoy for your specific needs. 

Frequently Asked Questions 

What is the best predator decoy?

Some of the best predator decoys used to lure in prey are critter decoys that quiver and shake. These small decoys are easy to set up, simple to use, and highly effective at drawing in coyotes and bobcats. Full body coyote decoys with realistic details, right down to the reflective glass eyes, can be just as effective. 

Do predator decoys work?

Predator decoys work when used the right way, at the right time. The best place to use a predator decoy is in a large, open area, such as a field. Decoys with motion are great at getting the attention of the predator you’re hunting while they distract prey away from you. Combined with your game call, a visible decoy will draw in predators like a magnet.
