Yandere Werewolf Park Ranger Helps Search for "Lost" You
Tumblr media
[Yandere! Werewolf! Park Ranger x Missing! GN Reader]
·゜·:.。..。.:·☆·゜·:.。..。.:·☆
"The search for missing hiker Y/N is still on going. The hiker has been missing for the past week and park officials are diligently searching..."
Park Ranger Wolf (yes, he finds the name ironic too) is Lupine National Forest's best tracker. Whenever a hiker goes missing, local law enforcement enlists his help.
The park ranger knows the forest like the back of his paw, knowing every twist and turn of the trails and able to track down any lost hiker with ease.
Ranger Wolf's werewolf senses permit him to hear the smallest footstep, crunching leaves and twigs alerting him to movement. And humans often wear deodorant and/or perfume, so all he needs is something to get a sniff of, and he's able to sniff his way towards his darling target.
He lives and breathes the forest, and even lives in his own personal cabin that he built with his own hands in the middle of the forest, resting right by the lake.
When you went mysteriously missing one morning, after going on a hike that you didn't return from, the local precinct immediately contacted Ranger Wolf to see if he could track you down.
Your family, eager to find you, provided the werewolf full access to your place, pleading with him to grab whatever he could so that he could get your scent memorized.
He happily shoved his nose into your pillow and underwear and deeply inhaled, instantly getting your scent committed to memory.
"I promise, I will find Y/N," Ranger Wolf told your parents, even placing a reassuring hand on your mother's shoulder.
Ranger Wolf would spend day and night out in the forest, the locals feeling slight relief knowing that he was on the case.
Since he had his cabin located out in the woods, he would stay out in the wilderness twenty-four/seven, only venturing back into town to pick up supplies and give a brief update to the police.
"Still nothing," he'd tell them, "but I won't give up."
"Thank you, Ranger Wolf," the police officer would say, "we really appreciate your help. I'm sure you'll find them in no time..."
·゜·:.。..。.:·☆·゜·:.。..。.:·☆
"Darling, I'm home!" Ranger Wolf called out as he entered the cabin, doing all of the locks that only he had the key for as soon as he was inside.
You jolted up from your seat and backed against a far corner in the windowless cabin that you were trapped in.
"They're still looking for you," Ranger Wolf chuckled as he began to take off his work uniform, "but don't worry, my love. I keep telling them that I have this territory handled, so no one will come here and try to take you away from me."
The large werewolf snickered for a second, his massive fangs gleaming in the faint light from the lantern that illuminated the tiny cabin he made the two of you share.
"I'd love to see anyone stupid enough to try to take you away from me," he growled.
He paused when he saw you huddled in the corner.
"Oh Darling," he frowned, "it's been a week and you're still afraid of me?" He held his large arms out towards you. "Why don't you come here and give Daddy his kiss?"
You didn't move.
"Darling?" Ranger Wolf/Daddy repeated, his voice deepening slightly, moving his fingers in a beckoning motion. "Come here, please."
You shook your head, trembling in your spot. You really wished that you hadn't strayed away from the trail and had gotten lost last week, only to be found by Ranger Wolf who'd immediately dragged you to his cabin to be his. He never lets you leave.
You're his.
"Come. Here," Ranger Wolf growled, narrowing his eyes at you as he grew impatient.
Not wanting to get punished again, you swallowed hard and took shaky steps across the floor towards the waiting werewolf.
Once you were within arm's reach, Ranger Wolf reached out and yanked you into his hold, cuddling you against his chest as he happily nuzzled you.
"Oh Darling," Ranger Wolf cooed, "I love you so much and I'm so happy that you're here with me. I promise that I'll take good care of you, and once you love me back, then I'll consider taking you into town. Then everyone will see what a cute couple we are: the lost hiker and the park ranger who saved them."

Hey! Hey, would you like to be a park ranger?
Tumblr media
USA Jobs just posted a bunch of national park ranger positions for summer 2024--everything from small historic sites to the big flagship parks like Yellowstone and Yosemite. These are seasonal positions specifically for interpretive rangers, which means you begin around May-ish and end around September-October-ish. Interpretation is the branch of the NPS that does educational programming and frontline visitor services, like working in the visitor centers, leading guided walks and talks, and just generally interacting with the public in a friendly, helpful way.
If you have a four-year college degree in just about any subject (honestly, I've worked with people with degrees ranging from theater to business to geoscience), or 12 months' relevant work experience (customer service, retail, education, camp counseling, etc), or a combination of the two, you're eligible to apply. All you need is a resume and transcripts if you're using education to qualify.
Just go to USAJobs.gov and search for "park ranger interpretation" in the search bar. The key things you're looking for in the results are listings from the National Park Service, the code GS 5 (which is the entry level for this position), and the phrase Not to Exceed 1039 hours (which indicates it's a seasonal position).
Some tips!
>Each application requires you to answer a questionnaire about your experience with things like customer service, preparing educational programs, researching scientific topics, etc. Be generous with yourself on these, because other folks will be. Even if you don't think you're an "expert" in something, consider your past work creatively. Have you presented research projects in class? Have you worked retail? Can you keep up a professional demeanor when somebody's upset? You have the qualifications. Rate yourself as such.
>Be thorough and specific in your resume. The NPS isn't a one-pager resume organization. They need to see evidence that you have the qualifications you say you do. The best way to ensure this is to copy, word for word, the phrases in the above questionnaire and insert them in the relevant places in your resume. So if the questionnaire says "Can you research, prepare, and present scientific information to a lay public," go to the appropriate place in your resume and write "I researched, prepared, and presented scientific information to my peers" or something similar. I kid you not, my current resume is ten pages long.
>Cover letters are optional but helpful! There are lots of templates online to help you write one; be sure to be professional. Mine is around 250 words and has three short paragraphs:
1- Position I'm applying for
2- Quick summary of most relevant work/education experience
3- Additional skills/rizz that makes me stand out (for me it's writing/illustrating, which helps me create visitor programs)
>Two things the NPS loves that will boost you are foreign language skills and being a US military veteran. Highlight these elements if you have them.
>Are you a schoolteacher? Check out the Teacher-Ranger-Teacher program.
>The big flashy parks are posted as standalone listings, but most of the others are bundled into "Multiple Locations" that are based on region. Consider applying for many of these smaller monuments and historic sites---they get far fewer applicants and are easier to secure. And many are absolutely beautiful. Want to work at Arches? Also apply to Natural Bridges. Want to work in Yellowstone? Also try Lassen Volcanic. Prefer history over science? You have dozens of amazing options from every facet of American history.
>Apply today! Apply now! Many of these parks cap their applicants because they get so many, and the rest will close after a week or so. A glance at the ones that were posted today and yesterday show them either closing on October 15 or 22. Some regions haven't posted yet, so keep checking the website in the next few weeks.
I love my work as a park ranger---it's such a rewarding way to spend a summer (or two, or ten), and it can open doors to other things. You won't get rich, but you will make great friends and great memories, add a killer section to your resume, and spend four months immersed with smart, passionate people in some of the coolest places in the US.
Plus you get a SICK HAT

We had an all staff meeting yesterday, and my Superintendent said that the average American taxpayer pays 10¢ to the operation of my park.
I'm thinking about getting a roll of dimes from the bank so when people complain about stuff and mention their tax dollars I can give them their dime back.
(and maybe to shove it up their ass)

I have my ranger assignment for the summer! I'm going back to Old Faithful wooo!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've been thinking about Yellowstone for months now, and I'm excited to be returning to a park where I've already spent two seasons, because there's such a learning curve when starting a new park. Of course, my last summer in uniform there was 2019, so I can't wait to see what the supervolcano has been getting up to in the meantime.

This is from a list of 25 "low-stress" jobs that popped up on Forbes. The author only bothered to actually talk about 8, including Groundskeeper/Gardner, Message Therapist, Librarian, Photographer, fitness instructor, interior designer, and my personal fave:
Graphic Designer Graphic designers develop promotional material for their clients, in the form of photos, adverts, banners, flyers, and even business cards and website designs. Careers within the arts are usually quite relaxing and comforting for those who suffer anxiety, because you're able to express your emotions and find therapy through your creative work. Additionally, it does not require high levels of client-facing activity most of the time. Having prior experience in graphic design is helpful if you desire to strike out on your own as a freelancer, and holding a degree within marketing or design-related field is a bonus. Average salary range: $47,000 to $68,000 per annum
Because who has ever heard of a stressed graphic designer? (It's so relaxing it's on the list twice!
Also to make these things even more "relaxing" the author suggests going into business for yourself so you can make your own schedule!
