Teacher Note: Black Bear, early spring. This April scat is made up almost entirely of big-tooth aspen catkins. A 6-year-old female climbed high in the tree and pulled in the branch tips to feed. Source: https://www.bear.org/website/bear-pages/black-bear/black-bear- sign/57-scat--droppings.html

Teacher Note: Black Bear, late summer. An actual blueberry dropping. Blueberry droppings usually include a lot of whole berries that were not soft and ripe enough to be broken up in the bear's muscular stomach. Bears hardly stop to chew berries. Instead, they swallow them whole and let their muscular stomach grind the pulp off the seeds. The seeds of blueberries are very small and look like sand.
