I can give you a little information. But not direct. I have a friend that works with the state parks as a ranger. I have asked how the pandemic has affected them. So I can give you some insight from that direction. They have gotten much more busy, due to families wanting to be outdoors and feel safer. Some of the parks have had to close certain areas of the park, due to not being able to have social distancing. Also they have had to stop the use of things like, kayaks and boats etc, due to not being able to clean then constantly. Also with things like cabin rentals, it is taking more time and manpower to clean so it has put a stressor on manpower. There has been more need for junior rangers due to this so it is definitely worth looking in to.
Thank you Shawn very much! After reading this I can see how this pandemic has affected other similar jobs to a forest and conservation worker and it's workers especially. It also motivates me because they are in need for more manpower. Also sorry for the late response.
