EDMONTON – Find it. Scoop it. Submit it. It’s just that easy.
As part of a new pilot project aimed at learning more about the park’s bears, Jasper National Park is looking for dedicated volunteers to collect bear scat this summer.
Hikers will first be trained to properly collect and handle the samples. After that, they will be asked to gather samples of bear droppings from along the park’s trails.

Handling scat is an easy job for most Americans and no reason to get all fastidious - after all, we’ve been buried in Obama’s sh*t for seven years.
