Pretty good app
Good info and good pictures. Still didn't identify the scat in the yard though. Probably because diet variation can really change appearances. For instance, the black bears around here eat a lot of blackberries and apples. Pretty obvious to tell which is in season. So more pictures would be good. Would be nice if the app had info about gender differences too.
And if the devs had the budget, a social scat catalog would be great. Tagged and geotagged photos in Flickr or wherever with community identification, comments, ratings, etc would be a great way to create a larger knowledge base.
(By the way, I resisted many scatological puns and double entendres. It was tough, the temptation is strong. I'm sure you can fill in the blanks easily enough!)
Crittertrax
I needed a set of different tracks. I looked in the app store, and found this app. It gives you an animal's range in north america, a picture of its poo, it's tracks, a picture of the animal, and let's you listen to what it sounds like! There are 43 different animals to choose from! Including bigfoot! I highly recommend this app! It's awesome!
