Commonly found in the woods (or wherever it happens to drop), scat is feces.
The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis)enjoys a rich diet of both plants and other animals. This actually defines them as omnivores, despite their carnivorous digestive system. They'll take down black bears, moose, elk, bison, caribou, deer, rodents, coyotes, wolves, foxes, bobcats, mountain lions, and sheep. They will also feed on trout, salmon, and bass. All bears are well-known to eat ants and termites, but grizzlies will also eat army cutworm moths and miller moths when available. Among the plant life they relish are mushrooms, grasses, acorns, whitebark pine nuts, blackberries, blueberries, salmon berries, buffalo berries, and cranberries. Some wildlife biologists estimate that 80-90% for the grizzly bear's diet consists of plant life. This may account for the successful germination of many types of plant life, as the undigested seeds are dispersed along with the nutrient-rich feces. Grizzlies are also known to scavenge food or carrion left behind by other animals. So there really is a lot more to a grizzly bear's scat than meets the eye of the casual observer.
