Life-like robotic decoys are built for deer, elks, moose and even bears! Made of animal hides or skins, these robots can help law enforcement official nab poachers and hunters.

Attached to polyurethane foam bodies, these life-like robotic deer are equipped with remotely controlled motors. It allows the head and tail to move, in turn allowing an illegal hunter trying to shoot the fake deer, fining him!

The increased practices of illegal hunting, can make an official earn fine of over $30,000 with a single robo-deer costing $2,000! Surely, not a bad deal along with conserving the deer and increasing control over poaching and other illegal hunting.

Though originally this interesting robot was introduced on Marketplace — a talk-show from American Public Media — a story on the robo-deer has been published by Voice of America News.
