How to Photograph a Huanan Tiger
Southern Metropolis Daily interviewed a tiger expert, Hu Huijian, on the recent Huanan (South China) tiger dispute. He demonstrated a way to fake the image of the Huanan tiger by taking photos of a paper tiger.
Meanwhile, since it has been discovered that the photos of the allegedly newly discovered Huanan tiger bear a striking resemblance to a popular New Year’s poster, CDT has collected photos from netizens of the poster as well as Zhou Zhenglong’s original Huanan tiger photos just released by Shaanxi Forestry Bureau.
Watch the slideshow below to see the various ways the Huanan tiger photos could have been faked: through photoshopping a New Year’s poster, or by placing a paper cut-out in the woods.
