Who's poo? (1 Viewer)

Norfolkman gone walkabout
Found these little beauties this afternoon while taking a stroll over the local countryside, not sure if they're from some kind of small deer..they looked too large to be from a Rabbit!! Didn't have any poo measuring apparatus with me so I guess the leaves next to the piles is as good a guide as I can give to the approximate size.

Any thoughts welcomed.

Thought you might have had some guesses at least Matt!! It also looks like deer poo to me, possibly Muntjac or Roe deer? Alternatively it could have been a late gift from the Easter Bunny!!! ;):-O
 
Pooh is the friendly bear from the children's books by A.A.Milne. Full name; Winnie-the-Pooh . . .

('Any' thoughts welcomed?? . . . ;) )
 
I'll go with a small deer, we only get roe here.. I wouldn't know how Muntjac or chinese water deer would differ!

The dog says it's a scooby-snack
 
Muntjac scat is more cylindrical: don't know about CWD. I would go with Roe Deer but has anyone considered Brown Hare? I am not sure I have ever found Brown Hare excreta though I've seen plenty of Mountain Hare which is more ovoid.
