Why stop animals from posing?

Because animals pose, satisfying human desires, but hurting animals.

People and animals live on the same planet, inhabit the same ecosystem and have a deep relationship with each other. Animal welfare is not only related to the relationship between man and nature, man and other life, but also related to the development of humanistic spirit.

At present, the occasional animal posturing incidents and even the successive cases of animal cruelty make it difficult for us to avoid the "ethical dilemma" between people and animals. Being kind to animals reasonably is not the so-called proliferation of charity, but a civilized and progressive move by human beings to be kind to life. Animal welfare measures the degree of civilization of a society and is also related to human welfare.

The truth of animal modeling

Many wildlife pictures are "fake". The wild animals in the photo are actually domesticated artificially; Seemingly natural movements are also put out. It is reported that in a wildlife photography base in Minnesota, USA, you can shoot as long as you pay, and each animal is clearly priced.

During the filming process, the breeder will accompany the whole process and guide the animals to make various actions. The photographer just needs to press the shutter next to him. Behind these shots, there are interests. However, it is completely against the original intention of wildlife photography to use domesticated animals to make fakes or pose animals to kill them.
