Abstract

During our visit to the Kruger National Park we learned that the rangers, assisted by aerial and canine support, have managed to substantially improve the effectiveness of anti-poaching operations within the Park. As the air wing is one of the tools used in the fight against poaching, we had to learn more about SANParks' Air wing and we therefore specifically spoke to the person in the Park who has, in my opinion, the greatest job: seeing the Park from the sky each day.
