FaunaHub Image Use Policy
FaunaHub publishes photographs of animals to support educational content. Every image must satisfy the following before being added to the site:
- Sourced from a legally reusable archive — Wikimedia Commons, public-domain government archives (e.g. NOAA, USFWS, NPS), Creative Commons-licensed collections, or other educational sources where reuse is clearly permitted.
- License must be Public Domain, CC0, CC BY, or CC BY-SA. FaunaHub does not use CC BY-NC, CC BY-NC-SA, CC BY-ND, unknown-license, or all-rights-reserved photography.
- Author, source URL, license name, and license URL are recorded in our metadata system and displayed on this credits page. Compact attribution is also shown directly beneath each image.
- FaunaHub does not use AI-generated "photos" of animals, social-media screenshots, breeder sales images, stock-photo previews, or images whose species identity is doubtful.
If you are the author of an image used on FaunaHub and believe the attribution or license treatment is incorrect, please contact us at info@helperg.com and we will review the entry promptly.
