A bear crapped in my yard.

It was way too big for a cat or a dog

There is a bear reported to live in the woods nearby my house.

I at first felt pissed off.

But then I felt sorry for the bear who is trying to survive in a semi-urban environment.

Look up bear scat on images. All animals have a characteristic pattern to their dung.

That will tell you for sure.

At first I was going to run with the age old question/jokingly.
Was going to say you solved the question on whether a bear craps in the woods.
But then you threw in the additional info of its need to survive or find a restroom in a semi urban environment.
Now I feel bad.

i remember when i went to go piss of my brothers porch in the middle of the night i looked down and a bear was eating my puke that was from earlier that night. i learned not to use the edge of his porch as a toliet anymore

thing was i didnt even notice till i was almost done and the bear didnt even care i was there just kept eating, i was close enough to touch him. the bottom of my feet were at the bears back level.

If you can have that stuff analyzed and proven to be from a certified bear, then you have helped make an exciting breakthrough in the dispelling of an old myth.

Just think of the satisfaction if not monetary rewards of proving that not all bears go potty in the woods.

Perhaps you should have that material bronzed?

Damn, I'll bet you don't get invited to many parties. My Daughter watched a Mountain Lion, or such, cross the road about a half mile from my home. This is very unusual in N.E. Connecticut. It must be desperate as well, the poor thing.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I'll clean up the mess for a fee (which will include my air fare).

A friends son went to piss in a large ditch at the side of the road in an area of sand dunes used for military training. As he stood by his son he suddenly noticed several pairs of eyes looking up at him. His son was pissing on some well camouflaged soldiers.

The plus side to this is that if other creatures are aware that a bear availed itself of your yard they will all keep away.

I'd say it's fortuitous and could save you a lot of clearing up in future if you leave it where it is
