Pica is a medical issue referring to animals craving and eating non-food items. Coprophagia is the eating and ingesting of feces. While an underlying disease is not the cause of most cases, there are some instances where a medical condition can lead to the condition and the behavior. There are treatment options for underlying medical conditions, and behavior modification practices that can be implemented to work with your animal on this issue.
