#worldrangerday

A Massive shout from #wildographydudette & conservationist @beverlyjoubert This World Ranger Day we are reflecting on the importance of the brave men and women on the frontlines of conservation who risk their lives to protect the natural world and its myriad species. This shot was taken during a rhino relocation as part of our Rhinos Without Borders initiative – a project spearheaded by the @GreatPlainsFoundation that aims to move threatened rhinos to safer grazing grounds. It takes dedication and teamwork to successfully carry out an operation like this and the rangers on the ground have more than their fair share.⁣ _____________________________________⁣ @DereckJoubert and I will be talking today at the Global Biodiversity Festival #WorldRangerDay event about the difficulties rangers face as a result of COVID-19, as well as outlining some of the ways we are helping through our #ProjectRanger initiative.

I shared this last year, but it’s worth sharing again.... 🦏 It's #WorldRangerDay and I want to share something with you that I learned a couple of years ago. You see, I often say that I have dedicated my life to reconnecting people to wildlife and conservation. But when I was in #Kenya and met the Rangers & Anti Poaching Units in @Lewa_Wildlife Conservancy and in @OlPejeta Conservancy... Well, I learned what it really means to dedicate one's life. These brave rangers spend around 24 to 26 days living in the Conservancy patrolling and protecting the area. Then they take a few days off to go home and see family, and then head right back to protecting the wildlife of Kenya. They track animals, search for poachers, work with local communities and give their life to protect the biodiversity and heritage of their home. True dedication. True heroes for wildlife. . . . . . #wildlife #conservation #lewa #lewawildlifeconservancy #olpejeta #rangers #antipoaching #hero #heroes #wildlifeheroes #AdricaRangerDay #RealHeroes #wildlifeRangers #AfricanParks #worldRangerDay2019 #stopPoaching (at Lewa Wildlife Conservancy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0maDImnfgs/?igshid=1wzmktoe0ny1m

Happy #worldrangerday 🦊

#WorldRangerDay shout out from @savingthesurvivors Rangers, the people that protect the natural world…. Rangers patrol protected areas, monitor wildlife, prevent poaching, engage local communities, help resolve human-wildlife conflicts, and assist with tourism. These men and women often work tirelessly in remote field locations for long stretches of time, separated from home and family, while they dedicate themselves to protecting the planet’s most beautiful and vulnerable species. As veterinarians we often put our lives in the hands of these special people, when we are guided by them in the bush to look for injured or poached wildlife. We can’t stop poaching, save the world’s most endangered species, or protect its most vital places without the crucial work done by rangers. We salute you…. #worldrangerday2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CSAE2BJgZ8W/?utm_medium=tumblr
