2018 Media Rangers:[]
The 2018 season brings two new media rangers...Ranger Russ and Ranger Andrew (see May 25, 2018 ). The two KNP&P media rangers will be using the profile Katmai Ranger to communicate with bearcam viewers on the bearcam comments. Ranger Russ popped into the bearcam comments today to introduce himself and share some early 2018 season information with bearcam viewers. The 2018 media ranger comment chats will be captured in google documents created by Lani H. Links to those google docs for the 2018 season can be found on the 2018 Media Ranger Comment Chats wiki page.
