| Aug 9, 2014 at 11:17 | comment | added | Venture2099 | As an aside, but very much in the spirit of the question, I find it quite interesting that humans encourage each other to go to such great lengths in the wild (leave no trace) when indigenous species leave trace daily. If my (0.2-1KG) human waste contaminates water supplies then why do we not clean up all animal waste (Tonnage of bear waste per year??) in the wilderness to prevent the same? | |

Point out I'm backpacking, don't want to carry a lot of mass.
