I mean, there's human shit in Central Park. I once watched some genteel ladies hilariously clean up before an Easter egg hunt one morning. Surprise!

Ok I’ll bite:
30 horses in the park, 6h per horse per day, uniform pooping
Call it 14 kg of feces per day per horse
Humans shit ~100g/day
115k park visitors a day
For humans to match that horse output, nearly 1% of all daily visitors would have to be pooping on the ground…
