fossilized forms, are often encountered at crime scenes but just as often not recognized for the forensic value. Death scenes
involving scavenged remains should automatically be examined for scat. They may contain missing skeletal elements,
jewelry, or other evidence associated with the incident. The presence of human feces withn a crime scene hopefully is not the
result of scavenging but more likely physical evacuation from the victim ante- or perimortem, or perhaps the product of a
psychologically motivated act by the perpetrator(s). As with most categories of evidence, the context of such a “message”
left by a suspect might be the topic of citations contained in the sections entitled Criminal and Cultural Behavior or
General Crime Scene and Death Scene Investigation Topics.
