It is thought that the cubed shape of the poop means it is less likely that it will roll away, and is prominent for other individuals to notice and smell, Carver added.

They need to explain why poop in Ark is a fully round sphere and not a log or coil.

Why don't other animals like dogs have cubed ones too either? Would make it easier to clean up for sure...


Dogs wouldn't need to, because they have people to pick up after them.

Preventing it from rolling away means the wombats probably have a useful reason to keep to poop where it is (like keeping away other wombats or predators, or attracting food like detritivores). There are some animals that line their burrows with their own poop so other animals know that the burrow is inhabited.

We are so primitive, just pooping and moving on with our lives.

The study's authors said the findings could have implications beyond the natural world, by helping to provide insight into new manufacturing techniques.

I've been saying this for a long time. We need to start looking more closely at poop to revolutionize factory work.

So do they have cubed rectums, because it seems like it would really hurt to take a poop if they didn't

The different elasticities along the walls of their intestines is what causes the cubed poop.
