Large trail and unusual stool found
Account
The witness reports finding a trail with broken limbs and slightly compressed ground where an animal had passed. They also found unusually large stool that seemed too large for local wildlife and unlikely to be from a horse because no horse tracks were seen. The witness and a companion collected a sample for a local lab, which reportedly said it was high in iron and composed mainly of tree bark, leaving the witness puzzled.
