Abstract
A decoy for attracting a game animal includes a body portion having a height, a width, and a length. The height and width are similar to those of a body of the game animal and the length is substantially reduced from that of the body of the game animal, such that the body portion resembles the body of the game animal when viewed only from the front and back. A three-dimension head portion that resembles the head of the game animal when viewed from all sides is attached to the body portion, such that the decoy at least partially resembles the game animal to be attracted when viewed from any side.
