- Additional scat samples were obtained from captive mongooses and genets in London Zoo in order to compare the degrees of digestion, but the samples from the captive animals have not been used in the statistical comparisons.
- Pellet or scat remains
- Areas of trapped sediment within these gullies were screened and the bones recovered, but the original position of the scats could not be determined (Andrews Evans, 1983), although from the nature of the scat site they could not have been more than 20 metres away.
- This activity produces a pattern of bone distribution similar to that of scat assemblages (Andrews Evans, 1983); in both cases the bones come from animals less than 120 g body weight.
- Fossil carnivore scat from East Turkana Kenya with bone exposed at the surface by acid etching (Jacobs 1985).
- Some digestion was found on the bone from all the carnivore scat collections, and the most distinctive feature of this was the rounding of the broken ends of limb bones.
- Table 2. 1 Summary of pellet and scat collections analysed
- Two scat collections have also been made from the coyote in the Bighorn Basin, Wyoming, USA.
- Scat collections from two larger species of fox have been analysed, two assemblages from the red fox in England and one from the arctic fox in Canada (Table 2.5).
- Coyote and fox scat concentrations are used for this purpose, and it is quite common to find mustelid scats from weasels or martens deposited along walls or roads which mark the edge of individual ranges (Lockie, 1966; MacDonald, 1979).
- Only one species of mustelid was found to provide a sample of small mammal bones from scat collections, although several other species were investigated.
- The predators that have provided pellet and scat samples to this study are described briefly and an account given of the localities where the samples were obtained.
- Seven species of mammalian carnivore are represented by 9 scat samples providing small mammal samples large enough for analysis, and a further six species were also investigated.
