"Fisherman"
I live in the Sacramento delta, right next to a river. There is levy close by, very beautiful spot. Our daily walk often includes this spot. Mostly at night, "fisherman" come to fish, and they are the worst humans ever. They throw their empties everywhere, and in the river. They clean their cars out right on the ground. Last week they threw a rolled up carpet in the river. Its too heavy for me to get out. They leave half bags of rotting bait fish out. Fishing line with hooks. Me and my wife pick it up on our walks the best we can. Overall, there is less thrown on the ground if is cleaned often. If there is trash out, people tend to think it must be OK, so they throw more. Awhile back, there was a baited hook that my dog found. He swallowed it. We took him to the vet, they knocked him out, but it was in too deep. Had to take him to University of Davis Vetrinaty Hospital. They got it out of his stomach. The day cost us $4800.
