In most countries, people can legally spend all morning taking photos in a park if they want.

But the real problem in this particular case can be spotted from a mile. Crime against nature was so rampant, that the India government must spend money and use cameras, drones and anything to stop it in the protected area. This is really "think of the criminals".

The alleged psychological damage done to women because a natural protected area is being surveilled, is clearly an excuse from poachers, unable now to continue their previous activity freely.

I will not try to pretend that I know the role of women on Indian culture and how much fragile mentally they are, but I assume that people can understand that scientific work is necessary; and that behind each camera there is not necessarily a rapist (Cambridge has also women doing science also). If this women are so stressed, the most probable reason is that they are poachers also.

Either you protect it, or you lose it. My sympathy for the "victims" of protecting nature is low and decreasing.

If your daily activities don't happen inside a national park, like in the case of this people, don't worry, you probably will not be followed by a conservationist drone.

I wonder what reasons could have the park staff to watch the activities of such good and nice people
