💨 Abstract

SANParks has issued a strict reminder that flying drones in any South African national park is illegal. The National Environmental Management: Protected Areas Act prohibits unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones from flying below 2,500 feet without prior written permission, as national parks are designated no-fly zones. This reminder comes amidst increasing reports of illegal drone use, which can disturb wildlife and visitors.
