This is a really interesting study. I'm doing something similar with several wild cat species but comparing the results to bacterial characterization using 16S rRNA markers. I'm looking for a lab to analyze chemical compounds in scat. Maybe you know of one? Good luck with your funding and your project.

Can we predict individual identity, age, and gender of Mexican gray wolves from their scent?
kittybiome is happy to help support your efforts to sequence the LilBubome. It will be great to have both her genome and information about her gut microbiome. Are there any specific ideas that you have about her health and how it might affect her microbes (or vice-versa)?
