gallery15-20 scat on floating dock in NW ontario. Crayfish parts visible and look to me like they probably make the majority of the diet. Just curious.

Follow up post, this is more scat in the general area that was found on a distinct trail. Presumably marking territory. I am also curious how old this stuff is being that its the desert with extreme heat and sun, I'd gather scat dries up quickly.

Mojave desert, just rained, Size 12 boots, the scat was found along a trail, presumably marking a territory. However, the picture of what seemed to be something that was obviously buried was very close to the trail of scat. not that there is very many areas to bury something easily in the rocky and boulder filled terrain. The footsprint was found way further up the trail maybe like half a mile. The other scats on the trail while I didn't get pictures were mostly hairy, not any seeds or plant matter that I can remember.

Found this on a fairly remote trail through a small river canyon in the Gifford Pinchot. In the half dozen or so times I've hike this area I've never seen scat from anything larger than a rodent and never seen anything larger than fishers and martins even though this area can have much larger mammals.
This was gray in a way I've never seen from bears or coyotes. I'm guessing cougar, but maybe a fat raccoon? No noticable berries, seeds, fur, or bones. Very little human presence for 10+ miles in any direction from this find. Berries have died off though mushrooms are at their peak and still trout in the river.
Main piece was around 4 inches long (probably 6" total) and a bit over 1" in diameter. No tracks or other scat found. Note that the bit beneath the longest piece in the first picture is stone. One long and two small pieces. All pretty uniform.

Was walking along Woodruff Wildlife Refuge when I stumbled upon these tracks. What left them?

woke up to this great gift right outside my patio door. Gated backyard, so whatever it was jumped the fence. Just outside GTA , Ontario Canada! Sometimes I see bunnies under the deck, so I think something was lurking around!

Maybe 9 inches wide? Not very thick/deep. No flies or anything on it. North Cascades, WA.

Can anyone share some insight? Itβs about the size of my hand. We have black bears in the deep woods of central NB but Iβve never seen any in my area. Thanks in advance!

Noticed these brown pieces on the sofa today next to my snake plant. Are they mice poop or soil? Itβs on the sofa headboard. We have not noticed any similar βdroppingsβ by the kitchen/counter.

Found this pile of poop at the local park in Newark, CA. Looks more like livestock poop than from a dog, but maybe a βshit tonβ of raccoons? (Zing!)
Like, it would have to be the biggest dog Iβve ever seen.
Someone host a petting zoo maybe? What is it?
r/AnimalTracking • u/nvr_fd_away • 4d ago
I suspect beaver but it's pretty large for beaver turds. Maybe coyote? We have a ton of them around.

Can anyone id? Hand and fingers included for scale. Rural Central TX. Found all of these tracks this morning after my dogs were barking throughout the night. I searched around and found the poop nearby along a fence line, it has grasshopper legs, maybe a seed? And some other plant matter. May or may not be from the same animal(s), Iβm not sure. This pasture only holds some cows

My partner is on a hike near Sommen Lake in Sweden, and they found this poop that was very purple and contained quite a few undigested berries.
The whole thing was about 10 cm in diameter - there is a gloved finger in the left side of the photo that might indicate scale.
The woods is mainly birch and fir trees, and (maybe obviously) lots of blueberries and other berries in the area.
Hope you can help!

An animal ate the rubber sealing under my garage door last night in Los Angeles . The rubber pieces seem big to me, but I have no idea nor context if thatβs accurate. Any idea who could do this?

Hi yall,
We've been dealing with a mouse and roach problem all summer at my apartment. We're slowly getting it in check, but I've recently been finding these...whatever they are all around the kitchen.
They're these brown, slightly translucent pod like things. I've found them in the counter top, on the ground beneath or cabinets and one in the cabinet. Theyre anywhere from half an inch to an inch long, some have been maybe like an inch and a half long. I'm assuming it's some kinda animal poop, but this doesn't look anything like the mouse droppings we've found, so im worried we've got a whole new problem going on. I live in queens New York if that helps.
Thank you!! This is driving me crazy!!

I live in the Tampa Bay region of Florida, USA, in a very densely populated county. My neighborhood does have some small parks around it. I found it in a wetland mitigation area. I have seen coyotes and raccoons here but I have seen raccoon poop and never have seen it like this, usually that has berries/seeds or at least what ive see. I would love to know what other cool critters could he here if there are any!
Size scale is as long as my size 7.5 womens shoe, as tall, and wider. Each poo is about dumpling sized lol
