Detained: Jail for Tiger Photo Hoaxer?
From Stinky Journalism.org - "It's so fake: Notice the size, scale and proportion of what are, objectively, small leaves in relation to the creature composited into this environment." "A Chinese police officer shows off the original poster of the tiger, as the Shaanxi provincial government confirmed earlier reports that the photos of the tiger, which has not been seen in the wild for decades, were fake"
 

"China has sacked a number of government officials and arrested a man in connection with a set of fake photographs that local authorities had said was proof of the existence of a highly endangered tiger."
