I might need ya'lls help! You see I found this scat about a week ago and can't quite seem to identify who poop'ed this one out?!
I know it appears to be hairy in the pic, but in real life and if you click the pic to a larger size you will see it is more like a fungus growing on it, rather then hair sticking out. It seems to be a grouping of large (as in much larger then a deer, rabbit or even a raccoon) pellets that are more oval shaped.
The closest I could find to this scat in my trusty rusty lil' scat book was that it may be a groundhog... except everyone says it's rare to see groundhog scat because usually they poop inside a special place in the tunnels at their home. An underground groundhog bathroom.
So could this be a rare moment of a groundhog poopin' in the wild instead of at his hand built potty place?
So, Help! Who shat this scat?
