	DNA from dung
		A minor level of error was seen in the DNA extractions between the blood and dung, however, when two extractions from dung were coupled with a single amplification from each, the error was eliminated.
		The age and location of the dung is a factor as environmental variables such as temperature, humidity, and exposure to sun can allow bacterial activity to degrade the DNA.
		The researchers recommend that the dung be 24 hours old or less, but they have extracted good DNA from dung as old as a few weeks.

	DUNG
		DUNG, human and animal excrement (pehen, peh^n "cow, horse dung," sarg^n "cow dung" [for etymology, see Emmerick], peækel "sheep, goat dung," ±alg@u@z "bird dung," madfu@¿, bora@z "human dung," ku@d "natural fertilizer"), widely used in Persia and Afghanistan for fuel and fertilizer.
		After the harvest fields are either thoroughly cleared of stubble, which is used for feed or fuel, or left to sheep and goats to graze, in which instance the land is fertilized by their droppings.
		Dung is used as a fertilizer in areas like eastern Afghanistan, where sufficient wood for fuel is still available in the mountains.

		If a dung fly anchors itself to the chest or main body cavity of a victim, it is possible for the dung fly to uses its proboscis tip to chew up and suck out whole internal organs.
		Dung flies fear fire and are easily driven off with bright bursts of light, large fires or loud, sudden noises.
		Dung flies behave very much like normal flies and are found in dungeons, battle fields, swamps, caves, graveyards and anywhere else where meat, carrion, garbage or blood can be found.

	Fungal ecology - dung fungi
		Dung is another source of organic matter and a potential home for saprotrophs.
		The spores of many dung fungi are on the dung at the time it is dropped by an animal, for the animal will have swallowed many fungal spores in the course of feeding.
		All in all, dung is a complex environment and the interactions between all these organisms (and the weather) will also influence the appearance of fruiting bodies.

	Designing a Clean-Burning High-Efficiency Dung-Burning Stove:
		Great quantities of dung are dried and burned, often very inefficiently, yet very little focus has been made in the area of improving dung-burning stoves and most stoves are built without consideration of advanced combustion principles.
		First, dung is usually fed into stoves in small chunks, which means feeding it through a long opening, as is appropriate for wood, is not feasible.
		The benchmark for fuel used for dung derives from a ratio of the heating value of dung at 17000 kJ/kg to that of wood.

	Gordon's Dung Beetle Page
		Dung beetles are a relatively modern group of beetles and their fossils only extend back to 40 million years ago, which means as far as we know they were not around when the dinosaurs were around, though many other beetles were.
		Dung beetles have amazing variety of life cycles and the females of many of the larger 'Rollers' stay inside their burrows and care for and protect their eggs and young, these species can live for up to 3 years.
		Before 1788 there were no cattle in Australia, and therefore the dung beetles there had not evolved the ability to deal with all this wet smelly cow dung, they were used to nice clean dryish kangaroo and other marsupial dung, most of them would have nothing to do with this modern import.

	Dung beetles
		Dung beetles break up dung of horses, donkeys, cattle and even that of dogs and cats, to form a ball and roll it away.
		The dung ball is buried and the female lays her eggs in the buried dung ball.
		Some dung beetles roll their dung ball a considerable distance from the source, while others burrow near or even underneath the place where they found it.

	Dung Beetle Benefits in the Pasture Ecosystem
		Dung beetles feed on manure, use it to provide housing and food for their young, and improve nutrient cycling, soil structure, and forage growth in the meantime.
		As the adult dung beetles use the liquid component for nourishment and the roughage for the brood balls, the dung pat quickly disappears.
		Dung beetle larvae are susceptible to some insecticides used for fly and internal parasite control for cattle.

	Dung Fungi
		Dung fungi or coprophilous fungi are a large group of saprobic fungi that have a unique life cycle in that they help to break down the dung of animals.
		The dung of herbivores consists mostly of undigested plant remains due to the inefficiency of the animal's digestive systems.
		Those coprophilous fungi that survive are voided with the animal dung where they grow and reproduce and once again release there spore back on to the surrounding grass to start the whole cycle again.

	Exotic dung beetles in Australia (Fact Sheet) (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Dung beetles use dung for breeding and as a food supply. Most species build their nests under dung pads, building an extensive tunnel system in order to lay their eggs in buried dung balls at depths of up to 20 cm.
		The native species are unable to cope with the dung produced by introduced livestock.
		Dung beetle activity not only buries fly breeding sites, it also releases the nutrients locked up in the dung pads and returns them to the ground.
