A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Equus ferus caballus
Sorry guys I hope I didn't cause you disruption in your appetites. I jut happen to have this picture and thought it would be good for signs of wildlife. I found this at Caddo lake last year my family and I took a hike on one of the old trails and in couple of spots was where someone had obviously came in on horse. It may be disgusting but feces are a great source of natural fertilizer and is food to several different types of animals mostly insects.
horses are generally almost all domesticated with only the last known wild horse the mustang living in the Yellowstone area.
I didn't mean to gross anyone one out my apologies I just thought it was a great post to put up on the signs of wildlife. It was just by chance I had this. An interesting fact I took and equine science class in high school it was a real neat class we had to learn all the different breeds my favorite one was the Appaloosa due to their spots and coloration. Horses are not one of my specialties but I do like them. I like them because they are to me a symbol of the spirit of being wild and free.

First of all that doesn't exactly look like horse manure. Unless that horse is ill it should have clumps. Second there are several herds of mustangs in a couple of states. They are in Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada.
