How do you recognize a park ranger? By their iconic National Park Service uniform, of course! But it’s more than just a grey shirt and green bottoms: A ranger needs a hat 🤠 the classic straw flat-hat, breezy summer sunhat, or stylish baseball cap keeps a ranger protected from the sun and identifiable to anyone who needs us! A ranger needs some boots 🥾 but they don’t have to be fancy. A good pair of brown hiking boots that can handle all kinds of duties from working in the field to giving talks

Rangers are the heroes of our natural world. Working in partnership with the Kenya Wildlife Service, SWT rangers face the most pressing threats to conservation, protecting wildlife and securing the habitats they call home. It is a difficult, dangerous job, and they do it with extraordinary courage and commitment. On #WorldRangerDay — and every day — we honour the guardians of our natural world. We hope you enjoy this special glimpse into our SWT/KWS Anti-Poaching Teams. Donors like you make this

World Ranger Day is celebrated worldwide each year on July 31st to commemorate Rangers killed or injured in the line of duty and to celebrate the work rangers do to protect the planet’s natural treasures and cultural heritage. On this day, we say THANK YOU to the men and women who work so hard to maintain Michigan's parks, harbors, trails and other natural and cultural resources. #WorldRangerDay | Michigan Department of Natural Resources
