Professor P. Poopdeck discusses types of animal waste ("Rabbit pellets, raccoon tubes, / Owl whitewash, and wombat cubes") and how that waste is used by animals ("Termites...poop to make a mighty mound") or humans ("The Mongol yurt...is often sealed with dung of yak"). Amusing cartoonlike art illustrates the humorous, informative text.
