BBC News - Wildlife photographer stripped of award:
"The experts compared the winning picture to pictures of Ossian, a tame wolf that lives at a zoological park near Madrid called Canada Real.
'You can see several very distinctive markings and the experts all agreed that, yes, it's the same wolf,' said Mr Carwardine.
'We disqualified [Mr Rodriguez] and banned him for life from entering the competition again, so I think that sends a strong message.'
Mr Carwardine added that Mr Rodruiguez had, throughout the investigation, denied 'hiring' Ossian for the photograph. The disqualified photographer maintains that his subject was a wild wolf."
