We heard the concerns voiced by many members of our community and asked several National Geographic experts to review this photograph. We have concluded that the frog was placed in this setting for the sole purpose of making a photo, but have no definitive proof that the animal was harmed. We asked for clarification from the photographer but did not receive it. We want to reiterate to our community that the ideal setting for photographing wildlife is in their natural habitat, behaving naturally. National Geographic does not support harming the subject or its environment for the sake of creating an image. We also expect full disclosure of how photographs are made. The photo will not be taken down because wed rather learn from it than hide it. :- Monica Clare Corcoran Dont hurt them because you want to FAME! its illegal, try to save these beautiful creatures! its not always about us being the best, we wont live if these beautiful animals dont live peacefully! as a photographer Ive the right to save this word of honor!just think that they do have souls and heard and they are not dead, spread this so that people would see what kind of cruelty behind each of these photographs. and they are included as crime! not fame!
