I found this statement by the lawyer for PETA amusing

"This case is also exposing the hypocrisy of those who exploit animals for their own gain"

Buy the dang "photographer" a fresh banana and let the monkey have his royalties

or maybe the camera manf. - the "photographer" did very little in terms of:
camera setup
composition
focus
lighting

etc. etc.

by Locke's Labor Theory the "photographer" did the least of anybody (except peta)
