I guess their lack of responsibility over the alligators needing rewarding.

Walt Disney Parks and Resorts has received federal permission to fly drones over its theme parks.

The Federal Aviation Administration issued a waiver this week allowing Disney to use drones through November 2020.

Disney asked for permission last year to fly the drones at Disneyland and Disney World for entertainment purposes, including fireworks shows. The waiver will allow nighttime use of drones.

"You have established adequate mitigations for risks," the waiver says.
