Dogs take shyts in line with Earth's magnetic field

Yep, I always wondered why my dog (pbuh) used to give me the whenever i'd try and steer her to a less poop filled place in the backyard. Always thought it was a smell/memory thing, but

your dog was giving you the ...brah, you must not know how this pooping thing works...

Wow, scientists just now figuring this out?

The first dogs were black dogs?

When dogs poo, it comes out melanated. Over time, the poo becomes albino. COINCIDENCE??!?!

Well, if you're ever lost and have a dog, at least you know which direction to walk when your dog relieves himself.

This is, sadly, the most interesting shyt i've read all day.

That would be a good experiment for friends. Take your dog out to poo and see which direction his head turns on average. If his head always turns north when he drops that deuce well wow, you've just found something amazing. If its random then well, i guess if you're lost you'll have to know a little bit regarding the position of the sun to know which direction you should walk.

Fun fact for friends. If you position your wrist watch to place the sun between the hour and the minute hand, the direction you'd be facing is, north, friend.

Never knew this.

When they looked at each other's notes, the researchers saw a pattern: For some reason, Czech foxes prefer to jump in a particular direction — toward the northeast. (To be more precise, it's about 20 degrees off "magnetic north" — the "N" on your compass.) As the video above says, most of the time, most foxes miss their targets and emerge covered in snow and (one presumes) a little embarrassed. But when they pointed in that particular northeasterly direction, Ed writes, "they killed on 73 percent of their attacks." If they reversed direction, and jumped exactly the opposite way, they killed 60 percent of the time. But in all other directions — east, south, west, whatever — they sucked. Only 18 percent of those jumps were successful.
Why this preference for a northeasterly/southwesterly leap? Cerveny found that foxes prefer to jump that way regardless of time of day, season of year, cloud cover or wind direction, so the northeast "advantage" isn't a temporary thing. It's constant.

What's going on?

Cerveny believes that foxes have "a magnetic sense." Not only can they see, hear, touch, taste and smell like we do, they've got an extra gift. They can sense the Earth's magnetic field. There are birds, sharks, turtles and ants that can do the same thing. But the fox is the first animal we know of to use this sense to hunt.

Cerveny can't prove this yet; he hasn't found a packet of magnetically sensitive cells or crystals inside a fox. That's going to take time. But if his theory is correct, here's how it might work.
