OK...i am only 22 and have only been hunting for 10 years....(blacktail deer)...but seriously...i want to know how you know what the average number of pelletsthere are in a poop???

Also i would like to make a coment on what you said about the shape of their poop. Not to correct you in any way because a young whipper snapper like myself correcting an adult would be morally wrong...but you are wrong! the reticulum is part of the first two chambers of the stomach with the rumen where the food is just mixed with saliva and seperated into layers of solid and liquid material. the solids actually then gets regurgitated, chewed then swollowed again..from there the food is moved to the last chamber or abomasum...then sent through the small intestine and pooped out...so technically the shape would have to come from the small intestine...ie small tube looking thing kinda like there poop..small and tube looking...........

but that is just my two cents
