Penguin Cam-spy in the huddle

The technology these days is incredible, I happened to be watching the Alan Titchmarsh show and saw that BBC 1 have a program which is called Penguins - Spy in the Huddle, It is an excellent example of how cameras and models can be used to get footage you would never get in the wild otherwise and with cameras getting smaller and technology getting more advanced, soon we could be making robot animals which have the same characterists as the real animals.

Is this too intrusive though, and should they have privacy? I think perhaps it could go too far, and the poor animals will think they are to realistic that they don't know the difference. I think maybe they should stick to rocks perhaps, but still I was very impressed with the technology and hopefully the penguins will be happy too.
