Estimated amount of each scat type consumed by Texas tortoises (Gopherus berlandieri) during 48‐h feeding trials expressed as area under the cumulative‐consumption curve (AUC; ±95% CI). Coprophagy is prevalent in Texas tortoises, and tortoises selectively choose feces along a compatibility‐risk gradient, which is evolutionarily meaningful.
