One scientist spent months training a dog to track dung to better understand elephant birthing patterns. Another discovered that mastodon poop years ago is the reason we enjoy pumpkin pie today. And every week, some folks deliver their own poop to medical facilities, where it is swirled, separated, and shipped off to a hospital to be transplanted into another human. There&#8217;s even a train full of human poop sludge that&#8217;s stuck without a home in Alabama.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"><em>This irreverent and engaging book shows that poop isn&#8217;t just waste-and that dealing with it responsibly is our duty.<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"><strong>Quick thoughts on this book\u2026<br \/><\/strong>When I was a classroom teacher, I had a pet rabbit.  Cleaning up rabbit poo was never a fun task. I now have two cats and one of my least favorite tasks is cleaning out their litter box. Honestly, I have never been excited about poop or scat. Though I will say, I would rather change a baby\u2019s messy diaper than clean up vomit. <\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">Unlike my total lack of fascination with animal excrement, Montgomery\u2019s new book, <strong><em>WHO GIVES A POOP? SURPRISING SCIENCE FROM ONE END TO THE OTHER<\/em><\/strong> , celebrates the discoveries found in the matter left behind by animals. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who Gives a Poop?
