Well, wait for the courts to decide, but I’m pretty sure you are going to be disappointed. You can’t copyright a work that has no author, that is well established.

It’s difficult to even claim a copyright on a work that has nature as the subject, even if you did author it, since natural forms are part of the public domain. So, even an unmodified photograph of a monkey, that the photographer took himself, would not necessarily be protectable.
