"Rhön Region Celebrates World Ranger Day"
In the heart of Germany lies the Rhön Biosphere Reserve, a haven for wildlife and nature enthusiasts alike. This year, the work of the Rhön Rangers is being celebrated on World Ranger Day, which falls on July 31st.
Sascha Heres, a ranger in the Rhön, has been sharing the details of their tours in an interview with HIT RADIO FFH. The day promises a variety of activities, including themed tours focused on insects, maintenance zones of the Rhön Biosphere Reserve, and a journey through the Schwarzes Moor.
The Rhön Rangers play a crucial role in preserving the Rhön's unique ecosystem. They are responsible for mapping plant populations, caring for sensitive habitats, and raising awareness about these ecosystems among children. One of the highlights of the day will be the Rhoën Ranger Day, an event designed to educate children about native bird species' habitats.
Children will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on activities such as building nest boxes with the Junior Rangers. These activities aim to foster a love for nature and encourage future generations to continue the work of conservation.
The World Ranger Day event will take place at Wanderparkplatz Schwarzes Moor from 12 pm to 4 pm on August 1st. For more information, you can visit the official Rhön Biosphere Reserve website or local announcements.
