The famous Celebes crested macaque, Naruto, has been denied the copyright to a series of selfies she took using a camera belonging to nature photographer David Slater, according to the latest ruling by a federal judge on Wednesday.

People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals, i.e. PETA, had brought the case against Slater as a representative for Naruto, seeking monetary damages owed to the monkey for copyright infringement. U.S. District Judge William Orrick ruled against PETA and the monkey and pointed to a declaration from the U.S. Copyright Office from 2014 that said works "produced by nature, animals, or plants" cannot be given copyright protection.

"I'm not the person to weigh into this," Orrick said. "This is an issue for Congress and the president. If they think animals should have the right of copyright they're free, I think, under the Constitution, to do that."

Orrick said he intends to dismiss the PETA lawsuit in an upcoming order, though a small chance remains that he could allow the organization to amend its lawsuit.

KEEP SCROLLING TO THE END ...WE STILL GOT LOTS MORE .......

Revenge is a Poison meant for others, which we end up swallowing ourselves. Vengence is a Dark Light that blinds all who seek it. Don’t argue with Idiots.. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
