Poo in the back garden

Hi all

Yes there's poo in our back garden, appeared there last night some time.
We don't have a dog and it's not human, very very strange.

We're in the Woods, other gardens beside us, and also back onto us. so basically no access.

Don't appear to have a hole in the fence either.

Has anyone else experienced this?
At first worried we'd a weird prowler, but doesn't look human...

Fox or Badger maybe?

Could have been thrown in off a shovel either

Wasn`t there a chimpanzee that escaped from an animal/garden centre in kilmacanogue in recent years?.

Maybe it`s living in the woods near you?

Good old fashioned Cat?

I would have guessed a cat - but unusual for it to deposit in the middle of a garden with nothing to cover it over? Perhaps it's that cat from the 'be more dog' ad.

I have only noticed the pic attached with OP's post..............be strong my lunch!

Cats in our area have no qualms about middle of lawn or amongst the flowers. Very gentile :0

It's canine for sure.

If you're end of terrace, theres enough space under the gate for the legion of jack russells and other small dogs that people let run wild around the estate. It looks like dog****, smells like, probably is.

Hi All

Thanks for your replies, mystery solved, the poo belongs to a fox.
I mentioned it to a neighbour and they've seen it in the back garden a good few times.

Also it smelled totally disgusting, which is another indicator apparently of fox poo!!

Watch if you have dogs. They love to roll in it. Odd but true.

If .243 is reading, one you missed ;-)

I've never know anyone to take a photo of a turd, things must be slow down there. Maybe start a scrap book? Glad you solved the mystery.
