or the other threat they may be thinking of is that you could zoom in to a particular animal with great detail to document potential abuse.
 
The whole thing reminds me of Irish Step Dance competitions: you are not allowed to shoot videos (presumably to prevent trade secrets from going to the competition), but still cameras are "ok" -- how they gonna enforce that these days with pretty much every digital camera capable of videos?

That is the irony of the situation. The lens I had was an old, eBay $10 manual focus Tamron 80-200 zoom attached via adapter ring to my Rebel Xt. I was a genuine threat to any pro shooters there. I suspect they didn't want pros taking photos and their pro criteria is a 'long' lens even when its on a cheap camera. By the way in case anyone goes to an event at the John Labatt Center in London Ontario, bring a short lens.

I wonder what they would do with a camera like this: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/specs/Canon/canon_sx1is.asp
 
(520mm equivalent zoom)
