Scat ID-outside of the pines

[dragoncjo]

I found this scat in camden county along the cooper river. My initial reaction is bear....but I really can't rationalize a bear being in camden county. There is loads of deer and fox in this woods and possibly coyote. Any ideas? Sorry for posting scat pics.....but I'm curious to what other think. The bottle is 32 oz the scat was large.

It's hard to see what is in it, I don't mean to be gross, but did you happen to pick through it to see what it contained? That will give you a lot of clues. If a deer eats a high-moisture content such as is found on rich pasture, they can have feces that looks like that. The trick is to find out if it is from a carnivore or not.
If it had hair in it, it could very well have been from a bear. I am really hoping above all hopes that it is not human.
