[edit] Rationale for use in Cambridge University primates

Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by U.S. fair use laws because:

  1. The image depicts a non-reproducible event, where BUAV went undercover into Cambridge University laboratories, and took film of experiments being conducted on non-human primates and presented the material to the High Court in London. There is no free equivalent that would illustrate that event.
  2. It is of much resolution than the original, and copies made from it will be of inferior quality.
  3. It has no commercial value.
  4. We have no reason to believe the copyright holder would object.
  5. The image is being used for informational purposes in an article about that event.
  6. Its inclusion in the article adds significantly to it because the photo and its historical significance are the object of discussion.
