SUMMARY
There’s a video doing the rounds on social media in Chile showing a group of wildlife photographers coming within just meters of a puma in the Torres del Paine National Park (Chilean Patagonia), and it’s causing quite a ruckus. It doesn't matter if the minimum distance to be kept by photographers is 50m, 100m, or 1000m, these rules are to protect the animals we love while still enabling us to enjoy our beloved craft. Flouting rules like these sets a dangerous precedent for animals in wildlife photography hotspots everywhere, not just Torres del Paine National Park. A viral video of photographers coming within meters of a wild puma in Chile has split hairs, but rules are rules, and flouting them is a slippery slope to unethical wildlife photography – yes or no?
