Anyone recognize this scat?

[Brandonmdavenport]

Hey guys,
I’m new here and new to northwestern Montana. As I’m getting to know my local wildlife I’ve been researching the scat Im finding on my property, but came across some I couldn’t identify. I was hoping an expert could lend a hand .

It’s a lot , about 1 foot diameter. It looks between large pellets and small tubular. You’ll have to excuse me if this is super common, as I said I’m new here . I appreciate the help!

Was their other animal hair in it?

And a standing ovation to you! This will go down as the most creative first post introduction in Eastmans' Forum history!

I only was able to spot one , approx 3 in, coarse almost black hair in the stool. That’s it.
And I’m glad I could entertain! Haha

Put a game camera on it and see if the goer comes back

Moose turds look like large jelly beans. Definitely not moose crap.

 

[kidoggy]

yes. I dropped it a few days ago . sorry . didn have a shovel


it actually looks like the backyard of the average dog owner.

It's not moose. I'd say it's a cat toilet.

That’s what I was not hoping for . It’s less than a foot off my front porch steps .

I thought that as well, but they would have had to walk up a 250 yard steep-sloped driveway to leave that outside my front door. And I definitely haven’t been here long enough to piss anyone off so that’d be a strange one
