The data quality for this game is very poor. (One might say even say it's shitty.)
I guessed wolf, game says it's bigger. I guessed cougar, game says its bigger again. I eventually struck out, turns out the animal was a sheep. I'm pretty sure wolves and cougars are bigger than sheep.
Worse yet, that's not sheep dung! Sheep dung is lots of individual round pellets, this was a single turd.
I can't believe I'm complaining about inaccurate poop data on a silly quiz site, but here we are.
I'm still suspicious, this is very unusual for a sheep.

Sheep farmer here. You are right to be suspicious.
Healthy sheep poo does indeed look like a little pile of loose pebbles. However it is not uncommon for something to cause their stool to turn into a lump or patty. The pebbles can cluster together like pomegranate seeds or dissolve into a single mass of varying viscosity. The cause can be everything from diet changes, bacterial infections, parasitic infestations, or even stress.
If I owned the sheep that produced the sample from Wikimedia, I would be concerned about the animal’s health and be looking to intervene actively. That turd just ain’t right.

Best thing on the Internet this week. Thank you.

Feedback is appreciated, thank you! The image is definitely labeled as sheep dung on Wikimedia Commons, but I will check the order of the listings for animal sizes.
Edit: I changed today's picture for a more typical example, and also ran through the list to check the sizes of the animals.

Thanks for looking into this.
You really shouldn't take the descriptions on Wikimedia Commons at face value, those are uploaded by volunteers and sometimes people label things inaccurately.

Sadly I am a trusting man. But I shall verify from now on!
The second and third attempts are much less difficult.

This was my first time cussing on HN. I'll know next time to let the words flow freely.

It's not cussing in this case, the website is quite literally about shit.

Once again, hot off of AnyHumanEver, I want to say a positive thing for vibe coding because I think it inspires interesting pet projects and lowers the threshold of achievability for them. At its best it gets out of the way and you simply get to simply experience something that was another person's creative vision.
I mean this one makes me want to hold my nose, but it's also the friction of idiosyncracy that I want to see in real people being creative.

Agreed! It was fun to make, even as someone with little-to-no website creating experience.

Edit: here's the Wikimedia link for the curious:
