Throwing tame animals into rivers (Perkins) or renting tame animals for "wild" shoots (National Geographic) is "fauxtagraphy," not photography.
Beyond the above offenders, this article details how those "wildlife"-themed Western calendars AREN'T taking pictures of actual wildlife, in many cases. Disgusting.
My respect for Marlin Perkins just dropped several notches. And, this is another reason why old-breed zoo management is, thankfully, dead and gone.
