Many do under unusual conditions, so I was right.
The piece I provided says 'Many animal species practice coprophagia as a matter of course; other species do not normally consume feces but may do so under unusual conditions.'
Coprophagia /kɒp.rə.ˈfeɪ.dʒi.ə/[1] or coprophagy is the consumption of feces, from the Greek κόπρος copros, "feces" and φαγεῖν phagein, "to eat". Many animal species practice coprophagia as a matter of course; other species do not normally consume feces but may do so under unusual conditions. Coprophagy refers to many kinds of feces eating including eating feces of other species (heterospecifics),of other individuals (allocoprophagy), or its own (autocoprophagy), those once deposited or taken directly from the anus.[2]

When are you going to produce something credible that proves evoultion to not be a fake?
Starving deer will do crazy things.
And there is another example of moving the goal posts. You know darn good and well what I mean when I say they don't normally eat rocks in their diet.
Squirrels eating meat is not proof of experimentation, its a concise diet they rest on as a result of the herbivore diet not being in reach. If they actually did experiment, the diet would say that, but it doesn't, it says they settle for insects and small rodents.

Again showing you read what you want to see and are more than prepared to lie when you cannot
If you had bothered to read the whole article you would have found out what those unusual conditions were but instead you chose dishonesty and ignorance just like you did all those times before, in fact just like you do every time
I have posted tons, you just have to review back, and its not encrypted like evoultion is either.
Posted many times in this thread.
When are you going to post the first piece of evidence ever to support the nonsense you call TF?
Take TF to the debate forum.
Animals eat feces when they are starving, we have already established this. Right now my parakeets are at the bottom of the cage, eating poo because I haven't filled their food dish.

None of which was his target food, so he acted out by eating feces. Now your getting it.
Yep. My ex-room mate had a chocolate lab that often ate his own feces. This was despite the fact that the dog was fed extremely well, given treats daily and also was spoiled by the owner and given leftover human food after dinner. The dog was an eating machine, even when it came to his own doodoo. That's hands down proof that creatures experiment with their diets That's just a fact of reality. Many creatures don't think on the same level as humans, but they aren't stupid and certainly don't only experiment out of desperation.
And if she had her Target Food she wouldn't be in starvation mode.
My cat eats the same food every day in abundance (she's a grazer, so her bowl always has some food in it) and is given the occasional treats once a week or so. Despite that she still experiments eating plants and grass outside and inside. I had to get rid of some of my plants because they were toxic to cats and she would attempt to eat them.
You don't know that. You don't know that the man made food is fulfilling their desires and satisfying every nutritional need they have. Obviously from them acting out, its not.
Those are 2 examples of well fed animals, experimenting with their diet regardless of the abundance of food.
I don't need to move goal posts, they seem to be floating for evolution. There is still no proof that I have seen that proves we share a common ancestor with apes. Unless you have an imagination anyhow.
Tooth is an obvious troll. He uses warped logic and reasoning to make arguments against evolution, then when he's proven wrong he claims the goal posts are being moved, which is absurd. People are debunking his faulty logic, they aren't changing the definition of evolution. Evolution has always been defined as genetic mutations sorted by natural selection, both of which are 100% proven observable measurable phenomena. His best argument against that is "well I've never seen an ape turn into a human, so it must be false!" What he doesn't realize is that the goal posts are very much being moved, but he is the one guilty of it. I doubt he even understands what that analogy means. Fun times
That is false, and the squirrel diet in wiki even tells you thats false. They even explain that this alternate diet is only when the other is out of season.
False. It is normal for squirrels and other rodents to consume meat regardless of the abundance of food.
However, some squirrels also consume meat, especially when faced with hunger
Then you have been observing starving deer.
Completely false. It's normal for deer and other animals to consume dirt and rocks.
Yet you keep giving clues that they are starving.
Discussing normal deer under normal circumstances.
Deer experiment with food regardless of the abundance.
