re the first part:

People often hang poop bags from trees along walking trails.

my assumption is that it's because they don't want to carry it the rest of the walk, and will pick it up on the way back. that's my assumption because I do this myself on private trails, and I do something similar on public trails very occasionally (I just hide it better, and I don't forget)

what I don't understand is how people both put it in a tree where it is visible and forget to pick it up on their way back

It could be a message so they put a garbage bin there.

Where I live there's a park where they removed all the bins and it made people put the poop bags where the bins were. Now the city is asking people not to litter but they will also put some bins back.
