The #NPS will hire >5,000 seasonal #ParkRangers, #Interior Secy Doug Burgum said this week, a move that comes days after he fired >1,000 full-time #park employees.
“Go apply. Apply for a job,” Burgum said in an interview Wednesday w/ #FauxNews. “We want to make sure that we’re giving a great experience for citizens at our national park system.”

They were Buffalo Soldiers — Black Americans who served in the U.S. Army after the Civil War. On Buffalo Soldiers Day, we celebrate the legacy of these first-of-a-kind, trailblazing rangers. These dedicated men protected wildlife from poachers, built trails and forged a proud legacy in our nation’s history. They made these accomplishments despite the racism and prejudice that they faced. Interior continues to preserve and honor the history of these first rangers at places like @CharlesYoungNPS, Fort Selden National Historic Site, @YosemiteNPS and more. #Americanhistory #buffalosoldiers Alt Text: Photo 1: A historical photo of eight men with bicycles from the 25th Infantry Regiment Bicycle Corps are standing on a terraced thermal feature from the late 1800’s.
