Sean Willmore
Inspired by the dedication of other park rangers who risked their lives to protect endangered animals, Australian park ranger, Sean Willmore, made a documentary called The Thin Green Line. His effort was to bring attention to the dangerous work these wildlife warriors undertook. Today The Thin Green Line Foundation looks after the welfare of rangers families where the ranger has been killed in the line of duty, and is also aiming to better equip rangers worldwide so that they have a greater chance of protecting both themselves and wild areas we all care about.
