Dissapearing Number 2's

[goingbush]

Anybody knows what animal digs up and eats your Number Two's ?

Noticed on a few occasions in outback WA and SA that you find a nice spot behind a tree to dig a hole for your evening No 2 , come back in the morning for another squat to find the hole has been neatly dug up and the number 2 MIA, no footprints left to identify the hungry critter.

Im thinking of buying an IR game cam to catch the perp, (and if its a feral cat a remote detonator)

Drop Bears leave no prints

My dog did that a few times while out camping.... She didn't dig them up though... They were ones that some dirty bugger had left out in the open unburied.

I was not impressed

Dingo's, lizards, goannas, foxes, cats, Regards Frank.

Perhaps your observations explain the term 'dingo bait'

I think I have the answer, lets hope they don't get a taste for flesh, Bob


"9. Poop

This one is slightly less pleasant than hair because we might have to come along with the poop. That would not be a pleasant experience. It's also a long shot. Most species produce their own excrement, and don't need to harvest that of other species, but it's possible that the aliens take in and emit a series of gases, and if that's the case, they might need someone else's poop. Why? Space is full of high-energy radiation that shoots through metal. The contents of a space ship can be shielded by a high electromagnetic field, but that raises other major problems. Layers and layers of dense organic material, on the other hand, absorb a lot of that radiation.
Present-day space agencies already have considered the idea that astronauts on long-haul voyages could line the walls of their spaceships with their food on the way to wherever they're going, and line the walls with their poop (properly packaged, of course) on the way back. Such agencies also mention that it could, with enough work, be possible to process that poop until it become edible again. It's then possible to feed those processed patties to the astronauts, who will then poop them out, and then it's back to the wall. I think at this point it's easy to see why we would rather have the aliens take our hair."

Close Pop, but no banana!

The ground based cousin of the koala and Im sure as you pointed out of the "drop bear" is most likely responsible for this especially in the mid outback areas of SA (eg the flinders ranges etc)

This animal will scrounge anything, they also will attack native bees nests and take the honey. These bears will associate with other animals without aggression making them a dying breed due to their vulnerability to other more aggressive breeds.

They also have a light brown, almost honey or yellow coloured coat which makes them less camoflaged and so easier to see in the native areas of the Flinders Ranges, I believe this colour may be better suited to the south western desert areas but am not entirely sure thats correct.

They are, of course, called the POOH BEAR.

(in the theme of "and you do just one goat"...)

Dr Digger,
