Hi. I just found this picture 410127505 on Adobe Stock and I'm surprised that this kind of photo can be here, it is legal??

    I find the picture as revolting as you.

     

    It's probably legal at least in most regions, but if it's morally acceptable is a different tune. It may, however, be illegal to kill the animals. At least in Europe, they are protected.

    You see well that the man has no head, probably because it is not easy to show yourself in such a public manner. That would, however, disqualify the picture because of the cropping IMHO.

      Thank you for your opinion. Yes it's probably legal in most regions, but I urge Adobe stock to consider whether to tolerate such photos. Because by approving such a photo, you maybe support the photography of killing animals for a trophy or fun... To give you a better understanding, I fully understand the photography of animals that kill each other by nature...
