There are "no parking" signs fixed to the side barriers of the bridge on both sides but they are not that visible 0*\

The cctv cameras exist at the gate, I found out, but the cables were stripped at least 2 months ago!

This is shocking, will find out what we can do! @#$ @#$ @#$ :evil:

This should be the very apex of security maintenance in a poacher-infested area! 0=

Typical SP and SA O/ O/

We have high poaching inside Kruger and the cctv cameras are out of order for2 months O/ O/

So many issues with security at gates and they can't fix the cameras 0*\

Shocking in KNP where we have high poaching someone is able to strip the cctv camera cables and rob tourists at a gate O/ @#$

Mind I was not impressed with security posture at this particular gate in January myself :no: :no: and pointed this out in online and email comments .... 0*\ 0*\

WARNING
The Malalane entrance to Kruger is currently suffering from an infestation of thieves around the bridge.
Method used: one very helpful local will call tourists away from their cars, to "show animals in the water".

WARNING
While attention is focussed elsewhere, their vehicle is ransacked.
Tourists staying at a local lodge lost everything they had in the car today, 15 March 2018
Be alert and warn guests.
Thank you to Mel Preddy for the information.
