A few years ago I read about a photographer, or rather a photographic method, wherein the photographer would rent stuffed animals, set them up in the 'wild' and then capture those great images.

As far as I was concerned such actions were unethical and when I expressed my disdain other photographers came to the method's defense, citing whatever it takes to get the shot.

When I read the headline for the below article I feared the article would be a long the same lines: ...uses animals from his friend's taxidermy shop... or some variation thereof. I was pleasantly surprised to discover how he captures these great animal portraits.

Did you know dog meat is served in restaurants in South Korea? I didn't. In the United States and most western countries, Fido is a family companion and while it's not ethical to judge another culture by our standards, anyone who doesn't at least (humanely) butcher the animal first is acting without proper care. South Korea relies on western consumerism for their economy and needs to be aware that we do not accept the practice of skinning and boiling dogs alive. Originally shared by April Benney Over 6,000 restaurants in South Korea are still serving dog meat even though it is now illegal. In many Asian countries dogs are boiled alive or skinned alive when slaughtered. It's an unbelievably horrendous & torturous way to die. I know a lot of you hate seeing this kind of posts on G+, but the Asian industry slaughtering dogs & cats is how I first got involved in animal rights & it will always be my main animal welfare concern. It's intolerable what is happen...

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him.
