A letter I agree with

The Woodland Trust's Dog Lavatories.
I recently spent time at a Woodland Trust woodland site and was taken
aback that I was the only visitor there who didn't have a dog. Others
arrived and let their dogs wander out of control all over the place. I
was struck by a feeling of being in a manufactured and artificial
environment where the woodland picture was evident but lacking
expected wildlife.
The idea that conservationists are protecting woodlands seems deeply
flawed when the woodlands are being abused as dog lavatories to the
detriment of wildlife and the natural environment.
Perhaps it is time to dump the dubious philosophy of "protecting"
woodlands of converting them into public recreation areas and instead
let them be undisturbed havens for wildlife.
It would certainly cost the taxpayer a lot less.
