Detailed Solution

Animal excreta pollute the soil is not a true statement.

Animal excreta acts as a manure which is a natural fertilizer. It contains minerals like nitrogen and phosphorus that is required by the plants to grow. It can improvise the water holding capacity of the soil thereby improving soil structure. Since they are organic and biodegradable, they are broken down to simpler and usable compounds by microorganisms present in soil, and thus does not contribute to the waste/garbage accumulating in environment. Hence, we can say that the animal excreta does not pollute the soil.
