Kangaroo droppings. Quite old.

Fresh droppings from the 4 extant ACT macropods overlap in size, shape, colour and odour so they often cant be reliably identified to species, contrary to the impression created in some books. Old droppings are no better.

Thanks Don. These observations are for a survey and I think Michael M. will be happy if it is just confirmed as a kangaroo of any description :-)
