Last spring I purchased a nice Leopard McKinsey target and added it to my range in an open bottom below my house with oaks around. Recently I added a shooting platform and a bag target holder (complete with roof) - real nice setup.

Recently I purchased a corn feeder and some mineral blocks; placed the blocks on one end of the open bottom, just inside the oaks and placed the corn feeder just inside the oaks at the other end. There are deer in the area - see 'em all the time.

Question - the leopard is in a prominent spot between the block location and the feeder location - it's wide open. It's been there all summer. However, in two weeks there is zero sign around the feeder and the blocks. Do deer shy away from realistic looking 3-d targets, even if the predator is non-indiginous?
