That trunk is about the size of my arm in the thickest part. Lots of scat. Way off the beaten path in the brush where no humans go. What ever did that was there a minute.

Looks like raccoon or possibly bear scat. The tree itself just looks like a decaying tree. It’s not living. I think the bark is simply peeling away. Any burn scars from a fire on nearby trees?

The tree is otherwise healthy. Zoom in on those horizontal marks especially near the base.

Bugs do that. If it hasnt just rained, you should notice some wood dust at the bottom of the tree. And 9 out of 10 times you see whats in that picture, the tree is dead. Maybe more like 99 out of 100. I guess its possible its an otherwise healthy tree but thats not likely at all.

If scat pile is smaller than your fist I would say a possum, larger pile maybe hog or coyote. Tree looks to be dead tree bark has fallen off, probably not related to scat.
