Introducing the “Dung Cam” – Motorized Elephant Dung

August 7, 2026/

The BBC built “Dung Cam” for Spy in the Wild, a remote-controlled camera disguised as a pile of elephant dung.

It can move on its own, record in 4K, and even deploy smaller “spy dung balls” to capture wildlife from every angle.

By blending perfectly into the terrain, it reveals how elephants and other animals behave when no humans are around.

Would you have guessed this was filmed using fake poop?
