Around my parts in Arkansas most coyote scat has persimmon seeds in'em. Maybe round other parts there is a common food that is seen in other kinds of scat? Otherwise could be dog. I'm not sure about cat.

Did you break it up to examine it's composition?

Cant tell. What's it taste like?

rangerider7 · Post by **rangerider7** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 6:03 pm

I appreciate all the good laughs.

but it's either Bobcat or Cougar. I just thought some of the guys that have seen each often could tell which it was. The segments and shape tell me it's a feline, but not sure if it is a large Bob or small Cougar. Thanks anyway.

Might be kinda gross to some, but , if you can, carry it to water the next time and soak out the innards.

Hair , bones, feathers, stick , and rocks... should tell what ate it. I've never seen anything other than bird or reptile that white. Very interesting. It also looks like it was fairly dry , or didn't fall far, when it hit the ground. What are the brown specks in it?

Cutter, I put it in a box to let the game warden have a look. It was very light in weight. What really puzzles me is it hasn't been there that long. It was found at a open gate I travel often. The white color usually means it was a number of weeks old. I have seen cougar scat turn gray quickly but never like this. Maybe the big cat was sick. We'll see.

guys, this is important to the science of hunting!

It doesn't look like the shape of the coyote scat I find that is often white. So I would guess Cat.

Coyotes around here fell on hard times last winter and were eating nothing but berries. They may have left the immediate area, no scat for a while and the rabbits are showing themselves.

rangerider7 · Post by **rangerider7** » Fri Jan 18, 2008 3:19 pm

sobenk, I think it is cat too. I found some tracks by a tank that were a little smaller than my fist. That seems to large for a bobcat. A young yearling bull was killed a few days before. There was not enough left of him to tell if it was a cat or Coyotes. I guess we will wait and see if anymore sign turns up. We have had cougars pass through ever so often, but no sign of kills.

Ocelot? stuff I've seen turns that color, but usually has one tapered, terminal end.

But then, waste from a caged animal is probablly based on entirely different diet, & that may affect the elimination shape, texture, etc.

Just my .02
