A fired #NationalPark ranger lost his dream job. He says the public is losing more

February 17, 2025

"Brian Gibbs lost his job as a national park ranger on Friday.

"He was working as an environmental educator at the #EffigyMounds #NationalMonument in northeast #Iowa. It was his 'dream job,' he wrote in a widely shared post on Facebook. The monument is the site of mounds made of earth, built by ancient #NativeAmericans, that form shapes of animals.

"The 41-year-old father learned of his termination on Valentine's Day. 'I am absolutely heartbroken and completely devastated,' he wrote.

"Gibbs is one of about 1,000 #NationalParkService employees who were fired this past week. Parks advocates say the layoffs could leave national parks understaffed going into a busy spring break."

People, people, people....stop going off trail. This is about protecting you the park visitor from areas and animals that have very real potential to maim and/or kill you. It also protects these natural wonders for all the park visitors to enjoy. So, when you go off trail, you're broadcasting to everyone else that you're selfish.
