User's notes

In grassy woodland at start of informal track; horse dung not from a wild horse I assume; I assume the horse was written in the grassy woodland a couple of weeks ago judged by the age of the dung. There were problems with horses - or should I say horse riders - years ago when the gate at the bottom of Oldfields Lane was open.

Sorry Waltraud. As you said, it is not from a wild horse. We can't record domestic horses as Brumbies. People ride horses in a number of our nature reserves, and we don't record them as Brumbies. Examples are Urambi Hills and along the Murrumbidgee River on the Bicentennial trail. I’ve placed a comment because the “Inconclusive” utility is crashing.

I confirmed as horse just to stop Carbon identifying it as pig, and CNM then sending me an email.

The only reason I record the horse poo is to convince PCS to keep the gate shut.

As for the other record Waltraud. The sighting with photos will remain on CNM in the Mt Majura Unidentified list..... https://canberra.naturemapr.org/locations/sightings/1?filter=unidentified

okay https://canberra.naturemapr.org/users/8083, I'll use the CNM links in a letter to PCS / CNPnorth and remove the records once I receive an acknowledgement for my letter (which I hope will take less than a year).
