I can find five fellow photographers that would make that claim.

back on topic, kinda, http://www.theguardian​.com …-hypocrisy-animal-welfare

this article talks about the new halal/kosher slaughter ban in Denmark (same country as the giraffe incident). It's focus is in part the amazing ability we humans have to turn a blind eye to the horrors of the confined animal feeding operations (CAFO) that put insanely cheap meat on our table for virtually every meal.

I'm not sure where I stand on the giraffe. Rather than seeing it as a business decision, I see it as a scientific endeavor. And as might be implied by my posting of the above article, no where near the ridiculousness of the billions upon billions of incidents of mistreatment of animals by our food supply chain.

We can't trust five creepy photographers to vouch for you; you have to find five upstanding citizens with integrity and a moral compass.

the irony of a bunch of amoral creeps discussing the slaughter of an animal is deep.
