What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreBen’s favorite thing about nature is the freedom to be loud, messy, and wild. He also loves searching for wildlife with his friends. He has found and held a wide variety of worms, spiders, frogs, and even a snake so far this spring.
Ben’s favorite animal is a toad. He loves to catch them, listen for them, play with them, and we love that they control those pesky mosquitoes.
Ben loves climbing on rocks, playing with his friends in the creek, and finding the very best sticks to hike with. He is always up for a far away adventure or just finding interesting bugs, sticks, and leaves in his backyard.
