Spotting

Description:

Blue Poop! Just kidding.. But, actually is a blue poop. And, was fresh when I got near. So, probably the animal that made this was near. The blue color comes from this fruit in the diet of this animal, "Jambolan" ("Syzygium cumini"). I can tell that this became from a mammal 'cos, first, was a big poop, and, second, had entire fruits on the poop. Birds (of that region) can't do this.

Habitat:

I found this blue poop in the midle of an environmental reserve of Atlantic Forest.

Notes:

~The Blue Poop it's my Spot Nº 1000~
