Copyright law states that animals cannot own copyrights.“The term ‘authorship’ implies that,for a work to be copyrightable,it must owe its origin to a human being.Materials produced only by nature,by plants,or by animals are not copyrightable.”
Slater argues that the image was not produced only by monkey because a monkey pressed a button,but he did all the setting up.
“If the monkey took it,it owns the copyright,not me;that’s Wikimedia’s basic argument.What they don’t realize is that it needs a court to decide that.I’ve told them it’s not public domain,they’ve got no right to say that it’s public domain.”explained Slater.
