I just cut about 50 acres of timber in Georgia. From this experience I can say that there was not a single concern about large primates. However, the forester and the cutters were scared crapless of creating a little bit of mud down the stream that goes through the property.
Agreed, feds would jump at the chance to shut down logging. Using Sasquatch or the spotted toad works either way.
So many BS stories still revolving around this phenomena. Sasfooty please do us all a favor and get a great picture?
