Id love to see the administrator of this group modify the guidelines to prohibit images of animals that have been baited or manipulated by the photographer. Isnt the point of this group to find inspiration? To view what others are able to capture in the NATURAL world? To let nature present itself to us as it unfolds without our influence? When a photographer buys a mouse at a pet store and throws it into a field to capture the bird grabbing it, it seems to me the farthest thing from inspirational, natural or ethical. I dont know if others feel the same, but I appreciate the administrators consideration. (This post is not directed at any individual whatsoever. It is just something that I see quite often and I dont think everyone is aware that some of these amazing images are captured in this manner.)
