Is this deer poop?
I went scouting today and took notice of concentrated piles of poop pellets right at the base of 2 different pines. It looks like deer pellets but why is it piled up right at base of the tree??

I was thinking rabbit. But we do not have porcupines down this way.
I'm reason they call it hunting and not shooting.

Second thought, really does not look like rabbit either.

Yep that's what I think NOW. Porky pine poop.
Looks very similar to deer pellets

These scat pellets gave me a false impression. I found one spot where there were rubs close by to this pine, the things about this tree was that the pellets were not right at the base. They were 3 to 4 feet around this pine, in piles. Looked like deer pellets, but just seemed like too much for one tree

No rabbits in this particular area, too many predators

Dang porky's. I thought that was just too much scat on one spot to be a deer. But the pellets look very similar

Re: Is this deer poop?
Those porkies and worth a . They are very hard on the Hemlocks , spruce and pines. I shoot them. I'm not sure it's the right thing but ther DNR encourages it.
