What is a Junior Ranger?

Junior Rangers help to "Explore, Learn, and Protect" our national parks. Anyone can be a Junior Ranger! Once you learn about the monument and the amazing resources found here, you will be able to share your knowledge with friends and family! Junior Rangers are representatives to tell others why Dinosaur National Monument is a special place and how to protect it for the future. You'll receive a badge to remind you of your important role in the National Park Service.
