    The story about the wolves in Yellowstone is actually wrong. The wolves didn't eat that much dear, but caused a change in the behaviour of the dear.

    I've definitely seen/heard from various photographers (on forums and in person) that "You need to get close, don't rely on long lenses, use a shorter lens and get close" etc. While this may result in the better IQ, this should not come at the cost of adversely affecting the behaviour of the subject. I've been out photographing deer on White Edge Moor and Big Moor over the last week, and have seen other photographers with tripods and big lenses getting (in my view) far too close to the stags. There have been occasions where I've been able to get some decent closer shots, but those were at times where I was standing still and passed closely to reach a rival male.

    Well, who knew it was Mammal Week? Many thanks for the video, as our under-appreciated, native mammals need all the support they can get. Birds get a lot of the attention, but we humans are the same class as our furry friends on land and the amazing dolphins and whales off the shores of our islands. Keep up the good work Mammal Society.
