It's illegal for a native bird to work under the MBTA, that's why so many movies use exotic birds in place of native ones - it's technically illegal to use native ones (although I highly doubt anyone would actually get in trouble for using a legally obtained native bird).
Oh, that’s interesting.
This doesn’t explain why movies don’t just use computer-generated birds, or why bird vocalizations are often incorrect. In these cases, ignorance on the part of the film studio or the fact that most audiences would not notice is a sufficient explanation. Furthermore, the reason why the calls of Red-tailed Hawks are often used with imagery of other birds of prey (particularly Bald Eagles) is because its scream is considered to be more impressive than the vocalizations of, for example, falcons, which often make high-pitched chittering or chirping noises, and Bald Eagles, which produce a feeble, gull-like clucking.
Most modern movies do use CGI birds - but remember that cheap CGI is still fairly new technology, which is why you might struggle to think of movies that do this.
An oryx that also seems to be a 3d model.
Good grief!!! Where did you find this?
As do the Chousingha and Sable Antelope..
This is a graphic from a pest control site, which uses a picture of a ground squirrel for a gopher, when real gophers look more like moles. Also, you are more likely to confuse a vole for a deer mouse than a gopher or prairie dog; the only real similarity between moles and voles in this context is in their names.
Gopher is a term that doesn't really specifically refer to any animal but more most burrowing rodents. I don't think it's inaccurate to call a woodchuck a gopher, as is being done here.
