« I’m happy to share with you today my gap year experience in South Australia, not far from Adelaïde city, as Park Ranger. I applied for this job 2 years ago, and I got the chance to stay one full year in Morialta Conservation Park.

1 – Create Visitor experience As national park ranger, my routine day started welcoming visitors and I had to inform them about respect for flora and fauna.

I used to learn them about the environment they will discover and how to behave.

I gave them a map of the park showing the different hikes and their duration, a leaflet with the different plants they could find and the animals they may encounter.

I also had to alert them to the dangers and risks walking in this natural park: don't feed the animals, do not touch plants, some of which are toxic and above all, and especially not to pollute the site. Nobody was allowed to smoke, light a fire or throwing away plastic waste. 2 – Protect native plants and animals After having educated and monitored visitors to ensure they complied with all rules and regulations, I was on my way to maintain park facilities like signs, tracks, walking trails. Then, I had to manage native vegetation and animals: I was in charge of controlling pest plants and feral animals, reducing grazing pressure, limiting land and waterway pollution, and protecting threatened species.

It was great to see kangaroos in real and to caress the koalas.

But I had to watch out for snakes and spiders, very present in this region. 3 – Provide emergency response I used to provide emergency response during the fire season to help bushfires, as well as find people got lost or injured and rescue them.

It was sometimes complicated 4 – Patrol the park At last, my best time of the day was to patrol to keep the park safe for all, as well as to conserve the area, but also I had to investigate accidents, complaints and illegal activities in the park. CONCLUSION : I was proud being a park ranger as I had to protect natural and cultural heritage for future generations.. »
