Taylor Swift has been accused of endangering a rare bird species by flouting filming restrictions while shooting a music video in New Zealand.
The Bad Blood singer's production company was given permission to film at Bethells Beach near Auckland, home to the critically-endangered New Zealand dotterel.
But conservationists claim the crew failed to follow rules limiting them to two vehicles on the sand - instead using up to a dozen vans and 4x4s.
New Zealand's Department of Conservation says there are around 1,700 dotterels left in New Zealand and warns that their nests on beaches are "easily destroyed by careless feet, dogs and off-road vehicles".
Waitakere Ranges Local Board chair Sandra Coney told Sky News: "There are restrictions on the number of vehicles and what they can do when they're on the beach.
The singer is now winning dozens of awards each year, including these eight from the Billboard Music Awards in May 2015
