The 4:3 aspect ratio should have been the clue.

Is this an April Fools gag or is it for real?…not very likely!

The Best Part:

Built-in Wildlife Call

Not only can the EOS-1D W remain hidden, it can bring the wildlife to the camera. By inserting a memory card with your favorite wildlife call recorded on it (MP3 and WAV formats supported), the EOS 1D-W can play back the recording. No longer does the photographer need to carry a duck, turkey, predator, deer or other call with them to attract wildlife. Canon will provide open source MP3 wildlife call audio files at a website to be announced.

It can also fire stun gun darts to immobilize the subject. Additional battery pack required. Why stop with wildlife? Great for children's photography and especially appropriate for Bridezillas.
