To have said something about the person who is stringing tinsel in our local lanes?

Before I go on, I live in Australia. The wildlife here is extensive and some of it endangered. People try their best to protect it.

Someone just posted on my local town FB page and thanked whoever has been hanging tinsel and baubles along the lane which is a long and beautiful lane spanning miles of open countryside ...it ends at the sea.

I commented to ask if this is a wise thing to do as animals and birds are at risk of entanglement.

I never comment like this...it seems busybodyish but the level of ignorance got to me.

People moan about balloon releases and those paper lanterns but they're liking this post?

Plastic tinsel? And baubles? Why? I'm too scared to look to see if anyone's commented on my response!

I was also thinking about the flammability of tinsel. It’s shiny and you are in full summer over there. Can you contact your local council or wherever for advice?
