Is this a snake poop?

Hi All,
Couple of days before I found a Russell Viper in my house garden.
Also found a poop in the garden and I would like to know: Is this a snake poop or not?

I have attached the poop pic.

Thanks.

This looks like owl droppings if you open it up you'll find a mouse or rodent skeleton! lol my opinion but that's what it seems like

i agree that it does not look like snake poop.

@Hunter; what you are describing are actually owl pellets, and they are regurgitated from the 'front' end of the owl. owl poop actually looks a lot like snake poop, but more liquid, with a fecal, urine, and urate portion, and will contain no bones or feathers.
