World Ranger Day is celebrated worldwide on July 31st to commemorate Rangers killed or injured in the line of duty and to celebrate the work Rangers do to protect the planet’s natural treasures and cultural heritage.
Let’s pause for a moment to reflect on the courage and sacrifice that Rangers make; by honouring Fallen Rangers and standing with Rangers who bravely undertake their role on the frontline.
World Ranger Day is an International Ranger Federation initiative promoted together with The Thin Green Line.
At the
forefront of this workforce are rangers and protected area workers,
encompassing state employed personnel, Indigenous peoples, community and
voluntary guardians, and personnel of privately managed areas. Their work
includes protection, conservation, monitoring, visitor services, fire
management, law enforcement, education, community support, and regulation of
sustainable use.
