What are they slipping in the water over there at the University of East Anglia? First the school was implicated in the ClimateGate scandal and now they’re telling us that animals have a right to privacy.
The Guardian UK spills the beans:
Wildlife documentary makers are infringing animals’ rights to privacy by filming their most private and intimate moments, according to a new study.
Footage of animals giving birth in their burrows or mating crosses an ethical line that film-makers should respect, according to Brett Mills, a lecturer in film studies at the University of East Anglia.
We’re not sure we can trust this information any more than we can trust the University of East Anglia’s ClimateGate numbers.
Obama, the IHTM office cat, is shameless. He will hump anything that moves and a lot of things that don’t. He’s like a feline Bill Clinton. We’ve never attempted to film his amorous actions, but it appears that if he saw a camera, he’d tell us he was ready for his close-up.
