Humor like this might work, where the sign leads with “There is no poop fairy” followed by a message explaining why leaving dog poop is discouraged. I don’t know if it’ll help with poop throwers who try to set shot-put records with their waste bags off trail. Hopefully, some of them are misinformed about how biodegradable their poop-sarchophogi are and can be reached through such campaigns, but there are definitely folks who choose to do the wrong thing when nobody’s watching. For them, I think the only solution is to make trail access more difficult, maybe by prohibiting trail access with dogs?
