Oregon: Home to the Oldest Human Poop IN THE WORLD!

Yes, we Oregonians are pret-ty proud to take this title. It turns out that about 14,000 years ago, someone in our neighborhood went into a cave and busted a grumpy. Yes! 

Today, the pieces of that fossilized grumpy (called a coprolite) make up the oldest human poop ever found!

So what did humans back then eat? Based on this picture, Triscuits and wood glue! But never mind that...because based on my last couple of posts, those distant ancestors of our helped put Oregon on the map (at least on THIS website!).
