    You don’t understand tree law. A same tree of about the same size and age must be transported and planted where the old one was. It can cost well over $20,000 per tree. They don’t get to just plant a sapling and say “20 years from now, you’re all good”.

    Then it also has to survive the transplant and a fair amount don’t, so must be replaced again if they fall over or die from the move.

      Tree law? Let’s say you and I go toe-to-toe on bird law and see who comes out the victor.
