So does PETA pay the animals they feature in all their publications?
They give them the gift of euthanasia.
PETA is a horrible organization regardless of your views on animals.

Some quotes from the trial court's opinion:
quote:
Despite Next Friends’ assertion that declining to grant a monkey copyright to a photograph “would depart from well - established norms,” Next Friends have not cited, and I have not found, a single case that expands the definition of authors to include animals.
quote:
Naruto is not an “author” within the meaning of the Copyright Act . Next Friends argue that this result is “antithetical” to the “tremendous [public] interest in animal art.” Opp. at 12 . Perhaps . But that is an argument that should be made to Congress an d the President, not to me .

Under no circumstances should this even be entertained; unless of course EVERY other problem has been fixed and neither the Prez or Congress has anything else to do.

PETA
These people are a special kind of retarded.
It's ok and cool to care about animals and such but my god, try and have a conversation with one of these fruit bats and it will make you want to gouge out your ear drums with nail files.

If the macaque has rights to the photo, then the camera owner should prosecute his monkey arse for theft of the camera
