Are animal activists turning to drones to spy on your operation?

Animal Agriculture Alliance advises farmers and ranchers nationwide to be aware of a potential new threat to their operations.

The agriculture support group says drone sightings over farms are becoming more common. Some farmers report sophisticated drones that go undetected. Others say the operators cannot clearly explain why the drones are flying over the land or whether they are filming.

Animal Ag Alliance suggests you contact your local law enforcement to determine your state laws regarding drones.
