What kind of Poop is this?

[Heatherella]

Funny question for your Sunday morning, my BYC friends. What kind of poop is this? I’ve been finding it around the yard. It’s really tiny. Maybe an inch long.

You know the relative size of that turd since you are there in real life. We only see a blob with no relation to familiar objects for us to get an idea of size. It could be six inches long or 6cm. Also, animal scat can offer clues by examining the contents, believe it or not. Tear it apart and see what the animal has been eating.


Knowing your location on the planet can off clues to what predators you may have. It makes a difference if you're from Florida or Cambodia.

All right, my mistake. I see it's an inch long.

It would still help to know your location. It could be python poop if you're in India, or it could be your neighbor's tiny dog if you're in Arizona.

Nevermind. It doesn’t matter. My coops are secure. Just thought I would post a funny and light hearted thread for a Sunday morning. Thanks anyway.

How about a cat? A neighbor's sick cat.

It does remind me of the poop my cat made and was too old and sick to bother covering up.

I apologize if I've hounded you unfairly.

Toad poop.

Hey! Maybe you’re right!!! I’ve found this in my veggie garden and I know I have a lot of toads. My daughter catches them all the time! I’m going to look this up! Thanks!

Hello! As a cone suer of poop in my backyard and my neighbors backyard and actually my Mother in-law’s backyard...for the same type of animal I happen to be a very true expert on the type of poop we have in our backyards here in our locale. What good that would do is to have I would truly never know but I plan to over our services freely and happily whenever needed to solve a mysterious circumstance!Lol! I will tell you that toad poop and owl poop is more readily available than one knows! We must be alert and oriented to its presence. It’s odor is also perfuming the air. The odor of wild rabbit is also guilty more readily than we know it as well with the company of coon poop and piss when we are navigating our backyards they will have already done so and left their marks and odor of their lovely smelling selves. I have to give these baths immediately as soon as they are caught because they smell like a predator. Just what everyone expects a predator to smell like.
