animal waste
Feces from fauna
Animal waste is the excrement and urine of animals, especially livestock.
The term appears in agricultural, environmental, and regulatory contexts: animal waste management, animal waste runoff.
It covers manure, slurry, and other biological byproducts from farming operations.
The phrase is functional rather than euphemistic—a category for policy and science rather than polite avoidance.
