Claim: Ambush predators use aggressive mimicry to attract prey, and other strategies like camouflage and burrows to hide themselves while they wait for prey to arrive.
Evidence: Ambush predators sit and wait for prey, often from a concealed position, and then launch a rapid surprise attack. The ambush may be set by hiding in a burrow, by camouflage, by aggressive mimicry, or by the use of a trap. Ambush predators or sit-and-wait predators are carnivorous animals that capture or trap prey by stealth or by strategy (typically not conscious), rather than by speed or by strength.
