I've grown up watching a good amount of Copperfield's TV specials through the years, and I don't recall him ever using animals very much at all (IF at all).

Anyone know why this is? I realize animals aren't every magician's preference, but you'd think he'd do at least a few animal illusions once in a great while. It almost makes me think he's strictly against dealing with animals.

Any thoughts?

I think it's a matter of "style". Every magician is different:DC uses only Webster the duck in some tricks(like the duck bucket),but he's a magician doing grand illusions. Grand illusions as the one he performs rarely admits animals. If You think a bit about it,they're many magicians who don't use animals in their show. It's just a choice...
