Q&A

Is it possible for a creature to regurgitate all waste products in the form of a pellet?

+0
−0

I am designing a rather sizable (~ 2000 kg) carnivorous predatory species and I want it to expel all the waste it produces in the form of dry, compacted pellets (similar to owl pellets, except of course it would contain more than simply undigestable bones and feathers, and be much larger) that it regurgitates from its mouth.

Is this feasible? How would the digestive and waste management system need to be changed to facilitate this?
