BBC wildlife photographer admits some scenes are faked to get sympathy from viewers

Wildlife cameraman Hamza Yassin has admitted that some of his wildlife scenes are ‘dramatised’ to gain sympathy from viewers.

The 33-year-old, who won last year's Strictly Come Dancing, has worked on a host of shows including Animal Park, Countryfile and more recently Strictly: Birds of Prey.

However, speaking at the Cheltenham Literature Festival, Yassin let slip that some of what we see on screen isn’t quite what we might think.

He shared: “The amount of times we'll film a cheetah family is huge, and she's got three babies, and we just zoom in slightly and crop out the last baby. Then you bring in a lion and the lion goes ‘Grr’ and you think, ‘Oh, the lion's killed the baby!’And then, five minutes of drama, and we just zoom back out again and then you say, ‘Ah, it's all a happy story.’No. That didn't happen. We are dramatising what we are seeing.”

“I want to tell the truth,” he added. “I want to say what's happening in this world.”
