Ask the moose that let us know she wasn't pleased when we set up
camp in her path to the lake in Maine.  Or the monster moose who
didn't like us setting up in his path in Idaho (and we were in
an impacted campsite at that).  Or the bear ... Or the ...deer

### Ahhhh, see a pattern yet? The animal doesn't care. If it's
the Trail it's walking, fine. If it is *not* the trail it's
walking, fine as well. For example(s), see above.

### LNT means LNT. Situations dictate LNT, not fixed
prescriptions. You know that....
