When photographing animals up close, these are organic interactions taken from inside an animal sanctuary. There was no baiting or luring of wild animals. Use of flash and lighting in these episodes was only for diurnal animals with supervision of biologists and/or conservationists to make sure no animals were harmed or negatively affected.
