What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn MoreRakesh has a genuine love and desire for nature,which is seen in all he does. He is curious about the outdoors, always asking questions about plants, animals, and ecosystems. Whether exploring a trail, observing wildlife, or simply spending time outside when traveling, he always finds time to notice the small things in nature. He respects nature and understands the importance of protecting it.
Rakesh’s favorite animal is the eagle because it represents strength and power within. He is fascinated by how eagles soar high with both power and grace, and admires their sharp vision as well as their independence. It interests him to see how they build nests and care for their young. To him, the eagle is not just a bird, but a symbol of nature’s beauty and strength, which inspires his desire to learn more and respect nature.
Rakesh’s favorite outdoor activity is traveling to different countries, where he can experience different ecosystems and cultures. Each place he visits ignites his curiosity, as he explores unfamiliar landscapes, sees new wildlife, and learns how people around the world connect with nature. Whether he is on an adventure through the forest, diving in the ocean, or discovering a new trail, Rakesh feels a responsibility to protect the beauty of nature.
