3,000 eggs abandoned after drone scares birds in California

If I were to poop in someone's front yard, I might go to jail. Yet, people constantly encourage human-sized pooping in my front yard -- every single day -- without any consequence at all.

Why do dogs get away with behaviour that would be blatantly offensive if done by a person?

At least where I live, it is a bylaw offense to not scoop after pooping.

Not that it ever can be enforced, unless you happen to have your doggy do its business on the bylaw officer's front lawn, but it's a bylaw nonetheless.

Just to verify--I am not taking a stance on this and I could see going either way--the idea is then that I can poop on your front yard as long as I "scoop"?

You can use a toilet. Dogs can't. Yes, it's an inconsistency. Socialization matters.

Did you know that insects, birds, and squirrels poop on your lawn too?
