what i eat                                                                    what my scat looks like

Twigs of shrubs and trees aren't very important to my diet, I care more for grasses and low growing plants. In the late winter/early spring I rely on digging thru the snow to find plants below the surface.  

Information credited to Hinterland Who's Who. Pictures credited to iNaturalist ( L-R) Alpine cinquefoil, bluegrass, clover, lupines, mountain fescue & western wheatgrass. 
My Scat is oblong in shape. Its colour can change from black, brown or even green depending on the food sources I consume.  

I can poop laying down or walking. So my scat can be in a single or a cluster of pellets.

​The Crowsnest Conservation Society thanks the past and present stewards and caretakers of this land we call home – Treaty 7 territory. We respect the diverse history of Indigenous knowledge, practices in maintaining land biodiversity, preservation of natural habitats, and sustainable use of the earth’s gifts for the continued well-being and benefit of all living creatures. We strive to continue learning from the Blackfoot Nations (Piikani [Peigan], Kainai [Blood], Siksika [Blackfoot]), the Ktunaxa Nation (Kootenay people), Métis Nation of Alberta (Region 3), the Stoney Nakoda Nation (Mountain people), and the Tsuu T'ina Nation (Athabaskan).
