 People Who Works in Forests

Foresters and forest rangers protect the trees from insects, animals, and diseases that

might damage them. They cut down old tress and plant new ones. They help tress make new

seeds. (Who protect the trees from insects, animals, and diseases that might damage them?

Why do they plant new trees after cutting the old ones?)

One of a forester’s important jobs is to guard against fire, for a fire can destroy a whole

forest. (What are the foresters and forest rangers most important jobs? Why do you think fire

can destroy the whole forest?) Often, foresters will spend days on a lookout station, high on a

mountainside. They also watch for smoke that will warn for a fire starting. Then, the foresters

direct the firefighters in the struggle against fire, the biggest enemy of the forest.
