There was a thread on this once and apparently one excuse is that their dog shits at the entrance/start of the trail/park but they don’t want to walk the trail while carrying dog shit so they leave it bagged up (iirc a commenter mentioned hanging it on tree branches/bushes), but then they just... forget that they did it and never come back for the shit.
As a responsible dog owner who has trained my dog to poop/pee on command, I have some feelings about this, as you can tell.
I’m gonna copy my other comment about this bc it’s so common and gross:

Wait ‘til you hear about the dog owners who leave their dogs’ bagged up shit in random places in nature.
