Many people who love the outdoors, and especially state or national parks, decide they want to become park rangers. While it is a career open to nearly anyone, it does take a great deal of dedication (преданность делу) and hard work, and often involves (включает) skills that many people do not expect. Those who want to become a park ranger in order to wander freely (свободно бродить) in the woods may find the job of naturalist

The first step to become a park ranger is to decide what type of ranger you want to be, and if having the actual job title Park Ranger is important to you, or whether you just want to wear the uniform and work in a park. There are people who work at park campgrounds ( палаточный лагерь), looking after campers, checking them in, and collecting fees (сбор пошлин). Other people patrol parks, with all the duties and capacities of law enforcement( правоохранительные органы). There are also those who help guide visitors to the parks, teaching them about the flora, fauna, and natural formations found within the park
