60+ year old thread.

Evening all:
Paying 29% interest !
It's amazing how smart some people are, but when it comes to money management/finances they are financially illiterate!

 

Okay poo wizards here is another one for you. I'm a bit worried about this one to be honest; *I* don't have movements that big...

 

Late Spring mushrooms, hear they're good for you. )
Duane

 

They almost look like Moose turds(where's @MQQSE aka Rob). He been in your neck of the woods Dave.

Thanks Duane, I'll pass on the mushrooms.

 

Moose poop is much cleaner than that ... actually looks exactly like this clever soap my wife has in the little downstairs half bath.

That stuff looks closer to bear scat, but it's not big enough.

 

OK now I know what moose poop looks like. Plus I've actually seen a moose in the wild, crossing the road when I was in New Hampshire. It was pretty far off but still impressive.

And I know what mushrooms look like too! This ain't mushrooms I guarantee.

 

afternoon boys

Ask a wildlife "expert"? @MTgirl hey Weesa.... you seen this scat before?

 

Evening all:
Your Alaskan bear are much bigger than ours, thus bigger poop! Could be a young bear also .

I just had bear poop in the yard full of small seeds, looks like it is raiding bird feeders.

Darn, must be a city girl, just like Sue I thought everyone in Montana was an expert on scat!

 

Gonna take your word on that.

'cuz you is Baby Sister.

exactly

Thanks folks, I needed a good chuckle.

 

Honest best guess ... big dog with poor diet.

 

I thought about that, we have bird nests in the vicinity but no feeders. I didn't see any seeds in the scat. Really dark gray, almost black in color. I thought bear, also thought possibly coyote; I've heard stories about them being on the ridge north of us, maybe they've made it south. But I have this mental image of coyotes being smallish, like a very lean German Shepherd; this poo looks too big. But then I'm no expert, else I would not be here on this truck forum asking a bunch of people I've never seen about animal poop!

I know right? Another bubble burst.

Thanks Rob. Also possible although I am not aware of any dogs that size anywhere nearby, in particular any that get loose. Most folks around here with dogs are pretty good about keeping them close to home.

 

Seriously could be a black bear, coyotes are tall and skinny like you said. The black bears here this year have been really healthy and good sized. I've seen several on base already.

 

Usually coyote scat has a lot of hair in it due to their diet, doesn't look like coyote scat that I've seen.

 

Good point Carl. Same experience here.

 

Hey Dave, I got to thinking and looked up the attached pictures. Do they look similar?

These are pics of cougar scat. There have been reports?? of sightings before in the NJ/PA areas. Could it be?

On my way guys.....40 days until I qualify for this forum! Figured I'll show up and announce myself properly on DAY 1. It would be nice to be the youngest one in ANY group just for schidtts & giggles!
