Old scat, beginning to fall apart, could be confused with a Mustelid dropping in this state...(hence the misnamed image)


Very pale example, possibly due to high bone content in the animals diet..


Very fresh example, showing "slimy" appearance - this soon dries out and is an indicator that the dropping is recent.


Feeding on berries, high seed content...


Example showing the fur content, most often encountered in Fox scat...
