If it is cold out where you are, fill your CLEAR water bottle with apple juice and set it by your sleeping bag. Then make sure somebody sees it and will ask what it is, esp if you don't have apple juice in your camp groceries. Tell them you peed in your bottle last night because it was so cold you didn't want to move far from your bed. Then drink the apple juice, and say you should always do this if you don't want to get dehydrated.
Make sure you let the cat out the bag before anyone actually drinks their pee. It is true that you can drink your own pee to stay hydrated but this is for emergencies and survival, you don't just do that every day.
Another one:
This requires a little research on your part. You can get pictures on the internet of animal "sign" which is how you can tell from their poop what animals have been there.
You make the "poop" with candy bars, granola bars, etc whatever has the texture and colors of the poop you are trying to imitate. You can use choc raisins or peanuts for pellet poop, like deer and rabbits but candy bars etc are fun to make into turd-looking ones.
So sometime when you are off by yourself, take out your candy and make a turd. Try to get it to look like some animal that lives in the kind of area you camp in (if it is a scary animal, like a bobcat or a mountain lion or bear, so much the better!)
Then you put your turd down on the ground in a relatively clean place and go join your friends that are bored. Pretty soon (before the ants come, or you attract a real animal) you want to start asking them if they want to go out exploring...look for tracks, or to come with you to see if they heard a certain noise...but you are actually leading them over to your turd. You spot it and look surprised, "My goodness, it looks like a (insert animal) was here! See this poop? I really do think it is from a (same animal) but it could be a (different animal). Let's see for sure. Then you reach down and take a little piece of the turd and eat it...then you say...YUP! That is definitely a (whichever animal you want to convince them is lurking around). This is fresh, he is nearby!"
Snipe hunting? You can convince gullible folks of a madeup animal living in the forest. You need to go to great lengths to describe the animal, give it a realistic name, and tell people all about its habits, what family of animals it's in, what it eats, etc. Maybe borrow characteristics of a real animal from another country and use them for this animal, just substitute foods, and stuff for things that grow in that area. Tell them that there are a lot of them around and they are harmless but only come out at night. The trick is to get up early in the morning while it is still dark outside and sit quietly on the edge of the campsite with a bag to catch it in. What happens if you get them interested enough, is that SOMEONE will get up and try to catch this animal, when you wake up they will be sitting there with their bag ready, they are really tired and frustrated because they haven't caught one yet. If you want, you can keep it going another round by noticing a "mistake" they made and tell them to try something different tomorrow morning.
You can try to convince people that almost any animal lives in the area. Just make it a running story and have all but a few people in on keeping it going. Pretty soon no one will know for sure and they will keep asking everyone. With a quick wink, you can stop almost any stranger from blowing your joke...plus if they hear that line of questions from someone in a group, they will usually help you with a good vague lie...like "Oh yeah, I see them all the time. My uncle got BIT by one of those! They sure are pretty though..." At my wilderness camp with troubled youth, we used to talk about the "monkeys" they heard at night in the treetops...in East Texas. It was actually frogs.

Get your self a tin can (espresso can) and somewhat bit string. Punch 2 small holes interior the backside of the can. Run somewhat bit string for the duration of the can and loop for the duration of the holes and tie it off. make valuable the string is tied to the backside of the can and runs for the duration of the opening of the can. Now the two hose down your arms or use a small moist sponge and grip the string truly tightly. Pull on the string in small increments and the can would desire to offer a low tone that sounds comparable to growling. communicate approximately bears being observed interior the section. Later interior the night, pull out the can and initiate making some "undergo" noises.

Do the scene from the Blair witch project where the kids laugh and run around the tent then shake it real hard.

If somebody sleeps in their socks, take one off and put it on the other foot (2 socks on one foot). Its the last place they look and then can't understand how it got there
