Yeah, we have a real problem around here when the beavers make "practice dams" all the time.

I think the point you missed was that some people thought it unwise to cut live wood just for practice. Obviously wild animals are doing it to survive, not to test their skill. When your life really depends on it then cut away, but when you don't really need to cut live wood then why can't you just use dead fall?


I think the point was people are taking this way to seriously. A few branches on a tree dopes not kill nor does it even harm it. Everyone is not running around chopping down trees wherever they stand. Those people whining are probably putting more pollution into the air with the cars which is doing more damage.

Who will think of the trees!?
