What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn More"I love nature because you can see flowers, I don't like wasps or fire ants, but being outside in the sunshine makes me so so happy!"
"My favorite animals are cheetahs and flamingos because cheetahs can run 60mph and flamingos can sleep standing on just one foot!"
"My favorite outdoor activity is swimming! Swimming at the beach is fun because you get to splash with the fish in the waves and find shark teeth!"
