Read this excerpt from “The Final Assault” by Sir Edmund Hillary. With the debris we chopped out of the slope we tried to build

up the platform on the downhill side, but almost invariably saw it collapse and go roaring down over the bluffs below. At times we were buffeted by wind and snow, yet we worked doggedly on, knowing that our tent was our only chance of survival against the rigors of the night. Which statement best describes the author’s purpose in this excerpt?

Why do some photographers dislike photographing animals
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The reason why photographers may refrain from photographing animals is due to the fact that it can be dangerous to either the photographer themselves or the animals. For example, cases where photographers will get too close to wildlife (like Tigers, Lions, etc.) resulting to animal attacks. There is also the chance of disturbing wildlife and habitats when going to retrieve images. These are the main reasons why photographers may refrain from wildlife photography.
