    There’s a lot of bad shit in our poop that isn’t in most wild animal shit.

    Particularly transmissible diseases for other humans.

      Also we’re visitors.

      At least in major watersheds the primary reason for picking up dog poop is because of the insane nitrogen content of the insane amounts of dog poop that’s generated. The environment isn’t ready for that influx.

      Potential disease vector is 2, then it’s icky gross is 3

        is there a general term for this? it’s something that applies basically whenever we humans do anything these days and yet barely anyone thinks about it, it’d be good to have a word to throw at people when telling them about it
