The competition is for Wild life photographs so it is quite right to disqualify it. No harm in taking shots of captive animals, the sin is in trying to pass them off as genuine wild life photos and when it is for a very prestigious competition with a large sum of money to be won and the possible remunerative photographic contracts which could and probably would follow on winning the competition then fraud is the right word. No doubt he will pay for this the hard way, reputation and money.
