World Ranger Day
World Ranger Day, or the Day of the Park Ranger, celebrated annually on July 31, was established in 2007 by the International Ranger Federation (IRF) to commemorate the contribution of the park rangers to nature conservation and honor the memory of dead rangers during the carrying out his service.
Ranger - "wanderer", "hunter", "forester", "huntsman", "policeman". This term appeared in the 17th century, originally called the English soldiers who fought in the War of King Philip (1675-1676). Today in society, the word "ranger" is most often associated with a policeman or a military man, whose main task is to maintain order or conduct special operations.
But today it is a professional holiday of park rangers, or state inspectors for the protection of animals and the environment. Park ranger is a specialist who protects and preserves nature conservation areas, wildlife and their habitat from poachers and external encroachments related to civilization.
The Ranger Day was first celebrated in 2007 in honor of the 15th anniversary of the International Ranger Federation (IRF), people who protect wildlife from poachers and their habitats, the integrity and inviolability of the boundaries of specially protected natural areas - reserves, national parks, wildlife reserves , monuments of nature and other objects that are valuable in nature.
IRF itself was created in 1992 by Scottish specialists together with employees of specially protected natural areas of the world.
The cause for the unification was the tragic events related to the death of the Rangers, and especially in Africa, where poachers go to great lengths to obtain the so-called "Grand Slam", killing five beautiful animals - elephant, rhinoceros, buffalo, lion and leopard. Getting them is the hardest, but sometimes the hunters do not abhor anything, even go for the killing of rangers defending these animals. In order to raise public awareness of the contribution of the Rangers to the protection of the environment and to support ranger organizations around the world, the Ranger Federation was created.
This organization today highlights the work of employees and colleagues, tells about the state of the environment and rare and endangered species of animals, defends the corporate interests of colleagues guarding nature. In the International Federation there are regional associations.
But today's date is not only a holiday, but also a day of remembrance of people who died or suffered in the performance of their official duties.
The profession of the state inspector is the protection of the special areas, includes many of the dangerous factors that they faces during the service. This is an attack of wild animals, fighting forest fires, meeting with armed poachers ...
Rangers deal with traumatized animals on busy highways, participate in the capture of poisonous snakes in crowded places, confront attacking predators while accompanying excursions and tourist groups, participate in the fight against forest fires and with armed poachers.
Poaching is one of the problems affecting the state of the population of rare animals on the planet. And all the main work to combat poaching falls on the shoulders of park rangers, the fate of rare animals and the condition of their habitats depend on them.
Reserve rangers are the advanced defenders of the wild nature, without them it is impossible to exterminate poaching, save rare animals and their habitats.
Therefore, the International Ranger Day is another reason to pay attention to the need to preserve the natural wealth of our planet for the descendants and to thank all those who chose conservation of their profession.
The holiday is actively promoted by more than 60 member organizations of the Ranger Federation from 46 countries. And since 2010, its celebration is supported by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
