What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn MoreViolet loves helping the Earth and caring for animals. She knows when animals need help, you stay back and find a professional. She’s learned so much at farm and aquarium camps. One of her favorite moments was finding baby snapping turtles—she gently held them, then released them so they could grow strong. She wants every animal to be safe.
Violet’s favorite animal is the spotted eagle ray. She loves their beautiful spots and thinks the babies are especially cute. After watching a ray named Darby have a baby, she became fascinated with ocean animals and hopes to see one in the wild someday.
Violet loves observing animals and pretending she’s one too—like a leopard sneaking and pouncing! She also picks up trash to help the Earth, because she wants animals to have clean, safe homes and more babies to grow up strong.
