They should be fed to the alligators! We HAVE RIGHT HERE!! As far as I'm concerned, one ? If not the greatest "wildlife photographer" in the world! Our own Doug. Herr! And his incredible wildlife photos week after week of amazing moments of wild life completely unruffled in the critters life ! The people who mess with the wild life critters, no matter what! Feathered, furred or otherwise ? They should be very heavily fined and without question incarcerated with a lengthy prison time if they constantly cause aggravation for the critters just to get a so called "natural action picture." Why not? Well they can destroy the habitat to make money with no consideration to the Life span of the wild critters. DOUG HERR? Heck he's completely invisible somewhere in the hinterland capturing images that are spell binding in beauty and reality.! And he doesn't ruffle a feather, nor hair! But magical photos? You bet! One right after the other time after time! Good on you Doug as you are a true photographic master when it comes to capturing the "Wildlife moments in reality!" Please, never give it up! :-) And yes maybe, just maybe? LEICA the company one of these days will see the photographic light and sign you onto a handsome contract to be the LEICA wildlife photographer of the LEICA WORLD! :-) cheers, ted ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug Herr" <wildlightphoto at earthlink.net> To: <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2014 1:36 PM Subject: [Leica] photographer fined > for violating the Endangered Species act: > > http://tinyurl.com/lnnmnee > > He's the one who got caught.
