Summer Learning Journey #8 Doc Rangers

my task is to list three pros (good things) and three cons (bad things) about working as a DOC ranger. At the bottom of your post, tell us whether you would like to be a DOC Ranger or not.

Pros

1 you are helping to protect native wild life

2 it would be cool to see all the animals and get closer to them than just staring through a window

3 you will get to travel and meet new people

Cons

1 you won't be able to see your family as much if you are working somewhere far away

2 you could get injured while trying to save/help our wildlife

3 when you put out traps you could accidentally kill native wild life

Personally I wouldn't like to be a DOC ranger, I'm sure it could be fun or interesting but I would rather be like a vet or a professional hockey player.

  1. Greetings and Salutations Bridget!

    Those are some lovely pros and some unfortunate cons.
    An important part of the activity was to share your personal thoughts on being a Doc Ranger, well done on sharing your opinion!
    I think I too would choose to be a vet instead! I do love animals though. Our animals need to be protected! We have so many native animals that are so special to us, can you name a few?
    Almost every job has pros and cons. You need to build resilience and discipline.


    Remember to always try your best!
