May I daven near cow dung?

Yes, if it does not smell. [The feces of all animals and birds other than those listed in the Poskim, do not have the status of human feces, and hence one is only required to distance oneself from them if the scent reaches one’s nose as explained above. This includes Cow feces.]

See Admur 76:3; 79:8-9; Ketzos Hashulchan 10:7; Piskeiy Teshuvos 79:6-7
