Conservation expert warns on real dangers of AI-generated wildlife images

An orangutan cuddling a clouded leopard is impossible, a conservationist told AFP, refuting images circulating on social media that appeared to show a camera trap capturing such an interaction between the animals.

AFP ran the image through an AI detection tool that found it likely contained fabricated content. Leopards are natural predators, the expert said, warning that AI‑generated wildlife images could erode public trust and make genuine conservation work more difficult.
