What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreBeckett, 4, was born in the PNW and has a deep love for nature. She cares for trees, animals, and even the tiniest bugs with incredible empathy and curiosity. She studies plant growth, asks big questions, and dreams of helping the environment. From rescuing worms to learning about reptiles, she sees every living thing as important. Her heart is rooted in nature, and she proudly carries that love with her, wherever she goes.
Beckett’s favorite animal is the bearded dragon. She loves their calm nature, scaly skin, and how they bask in the sun. She knows what they eat, how they grow, and even how they communicate. She calls them her “dragon buddies”. She draws them, reads about them, and teaches others all about their cool features. To Beckett, bearded dragons aren’t just reptiles—they’re magical, misunderstood creatures worthy of love and care.
Beckett’s favorite outdoor activity is exploring nature trails with her bug jar, magnifying glass, and binoculars. She searches for beetles, worms, butterflies, and birds—especially ones she hasn’t seen before. She listens for bird calls, watches how they fly, and even mimics their sounds. She talks to trees, collects leaves, and checks under rocks for hidden critters. As the “Ambassador of Animals,” she finds wonder in every corner of the wild and protects what she loves.
