The reasons why attacks by the French and their Native American allies were successful against the British in the forests, based on the illustration and Washington's quote, are:

  1. The British were easy targets by sharpshooters with their red uniforms in the forests.
  2. The British troops moved slowly and noisily through the forests.

These factors contributed to the challenges faced by the British in the forested environments, making them more vulnerable to attacks.
