Mark Trail is one of the Print Long-Runners of newspaper comics, first introduced in 1946, initially written and drawn by Ed Dodd (Jack Elrod succeeded Dodd in 1978, and James Allen in turn took over from Elrod in 2014). The comic focuses on Mark Trail, a photojournalist and outdoorsman for a magazine. His assignments always lead him into danger and misadventures in the Lost Forest National Forest. Joined by his friends and family there, most strips had him discovering some environmentally unfriendly evil-doer that he would punch out, and then tell about the endangered animal of the week.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })It's often poked fun at by The Comics Curmudgeon, and is ripe Snark Bait due to its over-the-top green aesops. Also notable for demonizing the endangered elephant into something that is a danger to all in one strip.

Babies Make Everything Better: In a ludicrous strip once, it was said that a man who abuses his wife was under stress from work would be all fixed and a good husband if he adopted a child. Um... No.

Green Aesop: The overarching themes usually equate to this.

Barbie Doll Anatomy: For some reason, Jack Elrod never drew nipples on any of the strip's male characters.

Amazing Technicolor Wildlife: It frequently featured miscolored animals, such as ducks with green bodies and brown heads (instead of the other way around) and baby-blue chicks. Who often grow to the size of Buicks and talk out of their butts, but that's another issue.
