What does Cascade red fox scat look like? Here are some photos of scats that have had mtDNA sequencing.

Red fox scat has rounded ends that are tapered (not twisty) and is often segmented. It is similar to domestic dog scat but much smaller and often filled with berries, hair, bones, grass, etc.

It is approximately 0.25 to 0.5 inches (1cm) in diameter – the same diameter as a pinky finger – and 1 to 4 inches (2 to 10cm) long. If it is a little larger, it may still be fox. If it is smaller (American marten size but without twisty ends), it could be a fox pup. 

Below are some photos of Cascade red fox scats as confirmed by DNA analysis.
