My daughter Ella truly respects nature. She loves learning and sharing what she knows. She has grown up hiking and exploring nature daily.
Thank you for generously supporting Ella in this year’s competition. Your participation helps empower the National Wildlife Federation in their mission to protect wildlife, restore habitats, and inspire the next generation of conservationists.
What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreShe loves exploring and discovering new things to learn about. We look at plants, animals, insects, and absorb everything. She has a biologist for a mother and it is obvious she takes after her by her passion and excitement for the natural world.
Her favorite animal is cats. She loves everything about them, domestic or wild. We have a variety of animals so she's been taught respect and appreciation for nature and all it provides to us humans. She finds cats mannerisms intriguing and likes to immitate their behaviors. Animal behavior and communication are extremely interesting to her so she tries to communicate with them in their language.
She loves hiking and playing at the beach. We will stop and look at things and we love taking our binoculars and bird/animal watching. She has also made up a few nature games such as "Hawk or Raven", and "Egret or Heron" where we have to quickly identify which it is on first glance. She absolutely loves spring and summer when we get to go to the rivers, lakes, and ocean beaches to hike and explore!
