The pseudomimic is a close relative of the mimic. Like its larger kin, the pseudomimic assumes the form of an object such as a small stone and waits for prey to approach before attacking. Pseudomimics typically feed on insects and small mammals, but they are also known to eat carrion left by other predators.
