Not seeing the forest for the trees?

Why cut down beaver-damaged trees that had started to grow back?

While walking my dog in Robson Park I couldn’t help but scratch my head.

After the resident beaver cut trees for his dams and new growth had started coming back, the city cut down most of what was left and planted more trees.

Granted they are different trees, but to me it seems a total waste of tax dollars to cut trees only to replace them with more trees, even if they are different ones.
