-Scatology is the study of feces. Scatological studies allow one to determine a wide range of biological information about a creature, including its diet (and thus where it has been), healthiness, and diseases such as tapeworms.  Animal feces dries, cools, and decays as it ages, so it can also tell the careful observer how long ago the animal was present.  The presence (or absence) and type of insects "feasting" on scat is another important clue to when it was deposited.

-This requirement is a group activity requiring at least 3 (and preferably 4 or more) people. Choose a suitable large park, field, campground, or urban environment (or combination thereof). Divide the group into at least two teams.  Each team should set off in a different direction to plot a course that returns to the starting point. When everyone is back, each team follows the other team's course, perhaps with the team who set the course following behind. Remember the point is to correctly guide others through a specific route, not to frustrate the other team and get them lost.

-Other traditional markers include broken tree branches pointed in the direction the follower is supposed to go.  You can also use sticks on the ground to make arrows. Breaking tree branches may not be appropriate in some areas but if breaking the branch helps keep the trail clear it is usually acceptable.

-One of the challenges of this requirement is that doing it along an established trail may be somewhat pointless.  A large field might make more sense.  It could also be completed in an urban area where travel in various directions is very possible but the markers can direct the correct course. On an urban course you can require that the followers provide addresses or record some feature at each turn of the route so you can verify they actually completed the correct path.

 It is best if the trail is marked so that each market can be seen from the next, or at least every intersection of trails/roads/paths is clearly marked. Placing the marker a few feet beyond the intersection helps indicate the correct path more clearly.
