Wildlife documentaries invade animal privacy rights, claims leading academic
 Wildlife documentary makers are breaching the rights of animals by invading their privacy, a leading academic has claimed. Dr Brett Mills believes programmes such as the BBC's Nature's Great Events, narrated by Sir David Attenborough, are "unethical" for capturing animals' most intimate secrets on camera without their consent. The senior lecturer at the University of East Anglia said it was wrong for broadcasters to treat all creatures as "fair game" and to fail to consider their right to privacy before recording.
