My daughter has an extraordinary love for all animals and nature—big and small—that is unlike anything I’ve ever witnessed.

What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreFrom the time she could walk, she’s been curious about the world around her, always eager to learn about different species, habitats, and how to care for every creature she meets. Her passion for nature goes beyond fascination; it drives her to ask thoughtful questions, read about wildlife, and spend time outside exploring, observing, and respecting the environment. She loves everything about nature.
She truly doesn’t have a favorite animal...she loves them all. What makes her special is her ability to see the uniqueness in every creature. Whether it’s a bug, a bird, a farm animal, or a wild one, she finds something to admire and love about each of them. She often says that every animal has its own personality and purpose, and that’s what makes them all special in different ways. Her love for animals isn’t about picking a favorite it’s about appreciating them all for who they are
Her favorite activity is simply being outside. Whether she’s catching fish with her net at the beach to observe them, searching for crawfish or salamanders in a mountain creek, or riding her horse in the pasture, she’s at her happiest when she’s outdoors. Nature is her playground, her classroom, and her calm place all in one. She finds joy in every moment spent outside, always exploring, learning, and connecting with the world around her
